Faery Ink - Layla xoxo

-
Hey everyone!!!  How happy are you that it's Friday?!?  I sure know that I AM!!!!!  Today I'm here to share with you another mail art envelope.  But this one was the 1st one that I did with a little window.... so you might want to watch this to see what happens lol.  The digi that I used on the back is a great digi from Faery Ink she's called Layla xoxo.

I made a little video of my process so that you won't make the same mistakes I did...



And here are the pictures.  The envelope is one that was taken from work.  It is an 8 1/2 x 11 that has little windows for the address.  I used some paints on this and sewed the edge close.

I used some art foamies stamps on this and some stencils with some paint and gel medium.

Here is the front of the envelope.  I just need to put a label to put the address on this.


I hope this inspires you to do some recycling.  Imagine getting some mail in a colorful envelope instead of the typical bills... how fun right?!?

I'm entering this in the following challenges:

  1. As you like it challenge - Favorite non card project and why - Right now my favorite projects to make is altered mail!  I just love the idea that people will get colorful mail for me.
  2. Crafting with an attitude - Anything goes
  3. Cre8tive hands friends - Anything goes
  4. Little miss muffet challenges - Anything goes
  5. Sassy studio designs - Anything goes
That's it for me for today!  Hope you have a fabulous Friday.

Hugs
