Description:

Simple as can be - 2 partners, 4 handmade envelopes each, for a total of 8 envelopes.

Envelopes should be any size suitable for mailing, meaning at least 3" x 5" and postcard thickness.

Make them from magazine pages, scrapbook paper, music sheets, book pages (if big enough), calendars, comic books, any special papers, just NOT plain and NOT flimsy!! Your choice, BUT- No solid colors, please.

Do not send any duplicates, please!

and please send them all in ONE larger envelope.

Did you know that Post-office machines cannot "read" envelopes made from dark-colored or patterned paper, so envelopes made with these types of papers will take longer to be delivered.

Just so you know, the decision is still yours regardless.

Open to anybody with a rating of 4.95 or above and newbies welcome. I will angel if need be, but only after you rate the non-sender accordingly. Contact me if you need to concerning this.

Do we decorate our envies, or leave then unembellished so they can be mailed?

doulakk 01/27/2013 #

They need to be mail-able, please. Thanks.
