Thank you so much for this one! It is awesome. I learned a great time saver with your tutorial as well. On the money envelope one could also put a category name as well. Put a text box on the flap flipped up side down so it would be upright after folding over. Great tool for teaching a young person about budgets and savings.
Beautiful collection! Thank you and Happy Valentines Day!
WOW! Jennifer! You've done it again! Thank you for this lovely collection - and I too, believe that envelopes are the beginning of the "receiving a card" experience!!!!
You are so welcome!
Jennifer, thank you for another great tutorial! Happy Valentine's Day!
OH MY GOODNESS! this video definitely will be help for envelopes for cards and I can't wait to make the money one so I can save money! Thank you so much!
Thank you for your timely video! I needed an envelope for a rather large valentine's day card for my daughter and had been trying to figure out an elegant but also easy way to make an envelope for it. My first attempt didn't accomplish much more than waste paper. I saw this video, immediately went to your library and found the envelopes. It took a little while to figure out how to resize the one on the page while not running through too much more paper and opted to eliminate the score lines to make the new size easier to create. I don't have a stylus yet, anyhow, only having received my Cricut a month ago. I can always use one of my score tools for that. I ended up making the envelope with the intricate cut out on the flap in pink and used the backing for the flap in metallic gold. It is really stunning when the gold shows through the openings that were cut out. Because of scheduling issues, I'm meeting my daughter on Wednesday so I have time to assemble it (I haven't glue it together yet). But I'm sure it will be a big hit. The envelope is almost prettier than the card. And, I did order a stylus tonight and should have it by tomorrow if I need to redo this.
Yay! That sounds great, Amy! Please share the final project with us over at facebook.com/groups/cricutcraftersandmakers 😊
Thank you, Jennifer, I can't wait to make these! Your projects are so unique.
These envelopes are a game changer for someone that loves to make their own cards!!! I also love the cash envelope! I think I will use that in the store I work at for monthly cash!!! Thank you!!!
I totally agree!
Thank you. Great resource for us. My favorite is the Bearly art glue also. I have never had a problem with it altering the cardstock or paper.
Wonderful!
Thanks Jennifer! Can't wait to try these. Thanks for all you do for the paper crafting community.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much, Jennifer, for this tutorial! For some reason, I'm more intimidated by paper projects than I am by vinyl projects; so I've been watching a lot of your videos for paper projects. I find some of them very challenging (like flowers!). 😄
There is nothing to cardstock, I promise!
Thank u so much Jennifer , I am so excited to make these envelopes😍🌴💕
These are awesome. Thank you Jennifer for sharing your talent and this video.
This is EXACTLY what I've been wanting to do envelopes for my hand-painted watercolor cards. Thank You, Jennifer, I'm so thrilled that you did this for us!
You are so welcome! I am so happy to have helped!🌸
Hi I have been on the hunt for cards with envelopes too. Wanting to make my son and his fiance's wedding thank you cards.
@@lyndahollins2881 Cricut has tons of options for ready-to-make cards that go with the new cardmat. Just have a look at the Cricut site, Walmart, Target, Amazon, or any of the crafting stores.
@@noneyabness8761 I wanted to make some lovely ones from scratch, I have several templates now. I have been asked my my son to make the wedding invitations.:) 50 of them Ugggggg ty for your reply.
🙂
I am so glad that you did these envelopes. I make tons of cards and not all have designs have envelopes to go with them... I would love also if someday when your not so busy to make different size cards that will fit in these envelopes. I usually get my card ideas from DS and sometimes i would like just to have the basic card sizes already to go. Hope i am making sense. Kind of like templates of card sizes. So then i can just print the different size cards and have a bunch already cut out so i have them to make cards from scratch. I know i can do that myself but having the cards in different sizes in templates (like i think the joy has some of those already) i can cut out would make it so much easier. If you can not do that i perfectly understand because you already do so much for us all. And also would love for you to make some stationary like writing stationary with the lines on it to write letters to people to go along with my cards i send. i always want to send a little something hand written in neat lines since i always get everything so crooked when i do not have the lines. LOVE THIS VIDEO AND ALL YOU DO FOR US CRICUT CRAFTERS
Replay. Downloaded these ty. I love the gift card one too
So excited! Thank Jennifer for all your hard work!!
You are so welcome!🌸
Thank you! Many times I make a card that doesn't have an envelope in the design. These files are just what I need, with all size envelopes in the same place, so I can finish up my projects & get them in the mail in a timely fashion, instead of hunting through my files for all the individual envelope patterns I have saved.
You are so welcome! 💕
Thank you for this tutorial!! I’m excited and looking forward to trying this for Mother’s Day!
You are so welcome!
Jennifer! You are an amazing teacher. I am a relatively new Cricut Explore Air 2 user and I have been wanting to make envelops of various sizes. I made my first envelope and then made 5 more! Thank you so much for making your files available. I truly appreciate you!
You are so welcome! Thank you! 😃
@@JenniferMaker You are so very welcome!
Thank you! Love the designs and all the options.
Jennifer these envelopes are so beautiful!! Thank you for sharing them. I am currently enrolled in your "Design to Shine" class and have decided to make one of your awesome A 10 envelopes for the pop up Flowerpot card. By the way your class is so informative and I am finally getting it!. Thank you .
This is AWESOME!!! Thanks so much, Jennifer! I just have the Joy (original) but will be upgrading to the Xtra soon, so hopefully more of these can be cut with it. Love this selection!❤❤❤
Have fun!

Many thanks Jennifer for your great video and job offering us such nice different designs. I fully agree with you that a nice personnalized envelope is almost half of the pleasure to send a card. Recipients never believe that you made it by yourself!
