  • Hi and Welcome! I'm Lily and in today's video I am going to make a couple of ink & embossed junk mail window envelope pockets for junk journals. I will be using two different Tim Holtz design embossing folders and a couple of the Tim Holtz Distress inks to create a beautiful ink & embossed design on the altered junk mail envelopes. Grab your supplies and let's make this together.
    Here is a list of supplies you may need:
    junk mail window envelopes or regular #10 window envelopes
    embossing folders
    Big Shot or similar for use with the embossing folders
    Distress Inks or any ink pads in your stash
    paper scraps (scrapbook paper, vintage music sheets, text paper)
    word sticker
    floral stickers, ephemera or floral digitals
    glue
    scissors
    water spray bottle or mister is optional
    Have fun creating junk mail envelope pockets!

    I love these pockets!! I actually get way more junk mail with window envelopes than I realized. I practiced cutting and folding three envelopes as I was watching this video. I am not a very straight or even cutter I have discovered. But hopefully practice will make at least closer to perfect. 😊 Now, I understand your excitement about junk mail envelopes! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful crafty inspiration!!

      Off camera, I used a Big Shot to run the embossing folder through. It adds pressure and leaves an imprint on the paper/envelope. :)

    I like your junk mail envelopes. I make greeting cards I wonder how I could use them in the cards. Any ideas?

      Thank you! I love making cards and I would probably use smaller ones as toppers to a card and then you've added a cute pocket with a window.
