In an effort to diy part of the save our date maps and add a surprise detail to the mailing, I decided to create fun envelope liners. I ordered envelopes in our wedding colors and envelope liner templates from Paper Source. The envelopes are colors: grape, violet, plum, and curry.
Here are all of the supplies I used. Various scrapbook papers from Michaels, A7 envelope liner template, A7 envelopes, scissors, and tombow adhesive. I love this adhesive because it's on a roller and makes application easy.
My favorite paper of the bunch. The butterflies look like the letter "W", which is my future last name :)
I traced the template on the back side of the paper, cut, and got these lovelies.
Once stuffed, I folded the liner over and used the adhesive to glue it to the envelope flap. They fit into each envelope nicely.
I didn't have a specific pattern per envelope, just stuffed each with what looked good.
Then addressed each enveloped, stuffed them with our maps, and stamped them. I mailed the last batch out on Saturday and am very excited for everyone to receive them :)This was a very easy, low key project but necessary for the love of details. I think it would be so fun to open an envelope and see a super cute pattern sticking out. It's like the red soles of Louboutins or the red lining of a LV damier, something unexpected and cheery.
