Legal size envelope (ones with a flat tab works best)

Card Stock

Adhesive

Coloring tools

Ink

Paper cutter

Pen

Ruler

Step One:

Draw a line on the flap fold of your envelope using your ruler and pen.  This will help you see better when you need to cut it.

Step Two:

Take your ruler and mark dots at 2 ¼ and 7 ¼.

Step Three:

Put Envelope in cutter and cut along envelope fold to your marks. Then cut off the rest of the flap.

Step Four:

Fold the bottom part of your envelope toward the center. The ends will not meet in the center.

Step Five:

Stamp background images onto the flaps and back of envelope, but not on the inside of the flaps.

    

 

 Step Six:

Cut your base card stock 4 ½ x 4. Layer to your liking.

Step Seven:

Step Eight:

Step Nine:

Adhere your base to the flap of your envelope.

Step Ten (optional):

Stamp a sentiment on the inside of the flaps.

Step Eleven:

Cut from your layered cardstock 1 piece of 4 ¼, one 3 ¾ and one pice of white 3 ¾ x10/8. This will make the inside of your card. Mount all the pieces together.

Step Twelve:

Stamp sentiment or image on insert and color.  Finish card to liking.
