As Easy as Can Be!


You can't imagine how much time I spent on this one-minute-fifty-two-second video. Honest.
I made it early in February--for prep month--so I could show you a quick and easy way to create beautiful stationery that doesn't need an envelope. 
Finally, here it is--an incredibly easy way to create eye-catching stationery
with 12x12" paper you may already have around the house. 


If you have been following this blog, you know that I love paper. I am partial to Creative Memories paper--in fact, I usually find it irresistible. [Sheepish grin.]
I simply grabbed some of my favorite double-sided 12x12" paper,
cut it in half, folded it into thirds and--voila!
As easy as can be.

You can make approximately one zillion of these just during the commercials of
Monk reruns.

Since the paper is double sided, when the envelope is opened, there is a surprise inside:
 a happy new design!
I use paper that has a more subdued pattern on the inside to make it easier to write the note. If the pattern on the outside is too dark to write on, I just add an address label.
Finally, seal it with a sticker or adhesive of your choice.


Late-breaking news!
I just checked the Creative Memories website,
and for the month of March there is a great sale on paper! 
The website reads: 1 month. 100s of papers.  30% off. 
Yay!
Feel free to contact my friendly consultant http://www.mycmsite.com/sites/sallyday
and she can help you choose appropriate paper for projects like this.

Now, just add a pen and stamp to this paper.

Literally.
