New Creative Team Member Michelle Houx

I’m happy to announce that Michelle Houx will be joining the Lori Whitlock Creative Team!  Michelle’s work is beautiful, and she will certainly be a fabulous addition to the team!  Here’s a little bit more about Michelle…
Hello, my name is Michelle Houx, also known as Paper Dreams and Things. I came up with this name because I’ve always been a crafty girl at heart and I find myself continually dreaming of all the things I can create with paper, glitter and glue. I am a mother of two teenagers, which is fun and sometimes challenging, and consider this to be the greatest job in the world. I am so happy to be part of the Lori Whitlock Design Team. I fell in love with her cut files when I purchased my first Cricut Machine in December 2018.  My favorite cut file to date is the super cute Sand Pail Shaped Box (SVG, Silhouette)! I believe we are all makers in some way or another. I love inspiring others and being inspired and believe that we can all craft a life we love! xo
You can see more of Michelle’s work on her Blog, on Instagram and on her YouTube Channel.

Lori Whitlock SVG Envelope Necessities

Hello Crafty Friends!

Today I would like to share my Top Ten Envelopes that are a must-have for any crafter. How many times have you made an awesome card and stuck it in an ordinary, thin, white envelope? It happens all of the time, which is why I’ve compiled this easy-to-reference list so you can find the right size and style for almost any card. I’ve also included some tips and embellishment ideas too!

All of the following envelopes are my very favorite. I know that they’ll be yours, too! All can be sent through the US Post Office, with the exception of the Money Holder. The Money Holder envelope is meant to be hand delivered, but it’s a great envelope to have on hand, so I included it too!

10. Money Holder Envelope* US Currency Money Holder Envelope with Tag Design Id# 209573 *Not to be mailed. This money holder envelope includes a print & cut tag

That seems like a lot, but there’s more! Did you know that there’s an entire category for  envelopes at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop? You can find them all here!

You can make your envelopes in advance too! I like to use Easy-Tear Double Sided Tape. Simply leave the tape liner on and when you’re ready to seal the envelope, remove the tape liner and press firmly. It certainly beats licking the envelopes! Currently, a standard size envelope can be mailed First-Class mail for 55-cents. Square, oversized, thick, or oddly shaped envelopes start out at 70-cents. I always take mine to my local Post Office to be weighed. You can find out where your local branch is at: usps.com.

Want to make that envelope extra special? Make a coordinating label! I love the “Label 3 Dingbat Font.”

Label 3 has many different shapes and you can customize the size to fit your envelope. You can find the font at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop, or at the Silhouette Design Store.

Curious about the samples posted above? They were made with Lori’s “Forward with Faith” Echo Park Paper line. I love, love, love the colors!

Happy Crafting!
