Obviously, I love recycling and making things out of other things.
Envelopes are one example. You can pick up an envelope template pretty
cheap or use an old envelope as a template and, hey-presto, you can turn
almost any paper item into an interesting and arty envelope. Magazines,
newspapers, maps, junk-mail, comics, calendars, sheet music, old books,
painted/marbled paper, scrap booking paper, security envelopes... Beats
being plain and boring.
I made some envelopes, using an old envelop as a template, out of an old calendar that had great images. I only wish I had thought of using it earlier in the year before I threw the other months out. I great way to use what would otherwise be rubbish. I need to make a few more because I feel these are too precious to use and keep saving them for something..!
