    I'm 63 years old and have never notice the inside pattern in envelopes. I can't wait to tear my bills apart. Amazing ideas. Thank you for sharing your creative visions with all of us.

  • @sherrywilliams7480

    I love this idea. I have saved these envelopes for quite some time, to make embellishments. I receive these envelopes from various ministries that I partner with. Every month, they send them in their newsletters, for extra love offerings. When I don't send them an extra gift, I use their envelopes. The great thing about most of them is that on the inside, it's not just patterned, but its scripture ! I've been making bookmarks, and journaling/scripture cards for my hand made prayer journals, for years, with them. I use them to give as gifts and I use them, myself. I will now be using them to make note cards to give. Thank you for this idea. Blessings to you. ☺

  • @happilyeverafterenterprise2239

    What?!? WOW!! Who knew??? The inside of junk mail envelopes!
    That is fabulous!
    GREAT upcycle! 😃👍🏻🌟

    @Allthingspriti Před 6 lety

    Love the recycling idea and the pop of color using sequins is just the right touch. The sequins add just enough, but refrain from distracting from the card. TFS

    I watched your first junk mail video last week and I grabbed all my bills and made a list of all the items you have that I don't have and went to Joann's and purchases most items from there ... I was so excited to find most of them on sale and I was able to use two coupons and a purchase of what would have been $95 turned out to be only $45!!!

    @oneword381 Před 6 lety

    I saw the video on the flowers that you make for the tags. I was so fascinated by what you did that I checked my mail, and found some interesting patterns. But, the best one was some mail from Franklin Graham (son of Billy Graham), instead of a design, it was the bible quote, John 3:16 NKJV repeated over and over. I'm trying to think of something special to make with it, Thank you for your wonderful ideas.
