Heart Envelope!

Very Easy DIY :)
I think this is one of my best tutorials and the easiest!
This tutorial is both creative & it gives such a cool effect and it really is easy, cheap and a fast way to wrap up whatever letter you want to give to anyone special :)

The coolest thing about it is..its handmade and it gives something special to it. So let's start :)



Here's what you need :

1) Paper ( I of course had file separators and since its thick and hard i                      used that)

2) Glue (anything that pastes very well depending on the paper you use)

3) A Marker, Siccor, Some stick it notes of colors, Foam stickers or other type of sticker.

4) Lastly A Letter (Obviously)




Let's Start!
How to Do :

1) Take the paper and draw half of a huge heart on it with your marker/pen. I used a whiteboard marker so it was easy to erase the excess marks off.

Now fold the paper and cut...

You will end up with this image below,

2) Now fold the corner into the middle of the paper. Make sure you fold it exactly like this image below. Reason is, the part you leave is the length you are going to have to put your letter inside the envelop.

REMEMBER : My paper had no right side, both sides are the same so if you are using a paper that has two different sides..this is happening in the inside of it.

Do both sides like the above image and you will end up like this,

3) Now fold the top part of the above image of step 2 onto the two folded sides. It will look like this from the outside :

Now paste that top part which will be the envelope's end onto the two folded sides. Remember when you are pasting be careful because this is where if you mess up, you won't be able to put your letter inside properly.

Take your glue and paste the two half folds together. The middle won't be glued at all!

After glueing press it hard or keeping it under a pile of books so it will paste properly and won't come off. It should look like this below image and should stay like this without any support to press it after its dried off.

4) Now fold the top part which is left like a normal envelop. Make sure you fold it properly so the corners are pretty sharp and the envelope's corners are closed properly by folding it. It will look like this,

For support use foam stickers, stickers, or a beads, maybe candle wax? to paste the envelope's backside so your letter won't fall off. I used a foam sticker so its easy for the reader to take it off and also put it back whenever he/she wants to. I thought its pretty user friendly that way! :)

5) Lastly decorate the front of your envelop!

I used some stick it notes of different colors. Over in these two envelops i used blue and orange as you can see in the below pictures..

 I cut different shapes to make it look more creative and interesting for the reader and i think its pretty cool :) You can cut anything you want, and i ended up writing the person's name i wanted to give it to and i had some more space to write several stuff to make it more complicated!

Check the pictures out of what i ended up with! :)

Do yours & Enjoy! x
