Dress Up Your Letters
Posted by Kathryn Grace under Miscellaneous | | 4 Comments
I just wanted to share a cute way to seal your letters that my sister did recently. Even if you are putting them in an envelope and mailing them, this is a cute way to fancy it up a bit.

If your letter paper is 8.5 x 11 inches, fold it in half lengthwise and then in thirds. Then cut a piece of colored paper or cardstock to 5.5 x 7 inches. Place your letter on the cardstock and fold the cardstock over it in uneven thirds, so that the top flap comes to the middle (as in the photo). Then you can just place a sticker to seal it, or do as we did and punch out a circle, write the recipient’s name on it, and attach it with adhesive such as double stick tape. My sister added a little bit of whimsy to the sticker by putting little dots all around the circle.
Of course your paper can be any size – just adjust the measurements as needed.

Oh, I just love a pretty envelope!
Another cute envelope idea is to use a old seed packet, putting the stamp/address on the back so the picture will show. Great for flower packet envelopes!!
