I think one of the first I sent you was in one of those. I always feel like I'm deceiving people a little because it looks like so much time was spent or even money to get a fancy envelope and i really just traced, cut and glued. <br /><br /><br />I couldn't wait to come on here and tell you, to get to the wedding yesterday we went through Chardon which is only a few minutes from us. We followed Ravenna Rd for quite a while and in the middle of Chardon there was a sign that said Ravenna - 26 miles. I didn't realize it was so close. Very small world indeed :]Ashley Rose Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05407988710991354342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5656074693450416622.post-30610563287330922492011-08-07T10:37:11.537-07:002011-08-07T10:37:11.537-07:00Pamela- I have gotten a few of your envies and the...Pamela- I have gotten a few of your envies and they are beautiful! It is amazing that you do not measure or use a template. I have only done that a few times..and I wasn't very happy with my result. But I guess it makes sense to say, do what seems to work for you. =)<br /><br />Susan- You are most welcome. It didn't take too long to photograph...though posting them was a whole other can of worms. hahaThe Pen Thiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13851153580764940442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5656074693450416622.post-39856893047641633612011-08-07T10:32:04.595-07:002011-08-07T10:32:04.595-07:00Thanks for taking the time to add photographs and ...Thanks for taking the time to add photographs and instructions!

I just fold and cut and tape -- random sizes depending on what I am using the envelope for. Very fast and easy....mine are usually rectangular shaped -- old menus, take-out flyers, magazines, maps...etc etc I use tape only - on the sides. And remember to leave a little space so the person who receives the envelope can actually slit it open -- I have had some envelopes so taped up I could hardly get them open without ruining them (and we don't want to do that!).<br />Thanks for the fun post, Pen Thief!Cappuccinoandartjournal.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11241197153708410602noreply@blogger.com
