💌 What You’ll Need
* A square piece of paper (10x10 inches or 12x12 inches or whatever square size you wish)
* Your card or insert (3.5x5 or 5.5x4.25 inches, etc)
* A flat surface for folding
That’s it! No adhesives, no cutting, and no sticky fingers.
🪄 How to Fold
1. Start with a square. Place it in front of you like a diamond (one corner pointing up).
2. Fold the bottom corner up toward the center. The tip should land just above the middle.
3. Fold in the sides so they overlap slightly in the center — this forms the pocket.
4. Slide your card or note inside.
5. Fold the top corner down to close the envelope — tuck the tip into the side folds to hold it shut.
The folds stay snug on their own, so your envelope looks neat and finished without any tape or glue.
### 📏 Sizing Tips
* 10x10 inches fits smaller handmade cards (3.5x5 inches).
* 12x12 inches fits standard greeting cards (5.5x4.25 inches).
Try printing or cutting several papers ahead of time, so you always have a cute envelope ready to go!
🌸 Creative Ideas
Use patterned scrapbook paper, seasonal prints, or your own printable designs. Add stickers, wax seals, or washi tape if you’d like an extra touch of charm.
Simple, quick, and pretty — your handmade cards deserve envelopes as special as what’s inside.
Happy crafting! ✂️
