1
Place the sizing template (the larger of the two) on your desired paper and use the "window" to determine the front of the envelope.

2
Tear away the excess paper against the edge of the template so that the paper is the exact shape of the sizing template.

3
Turn the paper over (the front is now face down) and place the sizing template on the paper, ensuring that the corners match up.

4
Place the envelope template (the rectangular piece) into the window.

5
Carefully remove the sizing template. The envelope template is now in the exact position for making the perfect envelope.

6
Fold the sides around the envelope template, then the bottom, followed by the top.

7
Before removing the envelope template, use a glue stick to seal the bottom flap to the sides. Then use it to seal the back top flap.

8
The envelope can be used to hand-deliver a card or message. It can also be posted. If you are posting the envelope, attach a white self-adhesive label to provide a clear area on the front of the envelope for an address.

All you need to make creative envelopes is a Kreate-a-lope kit and some paper. All types of paper can be used including wrapping paper, magazine pages, posters, children's drawings or calendars. It's a great way to recycle papers.


Cost
The Kreate-a-Lope sells for around $12.
