    A very unique topic for a lens. In a certain set of circumstances your envelope ideas would be perfect.

    Excellent lens! Someone just sent me an ATC in a homemade envelope, and I think I enjoyed the envelope as much as the card! I was looking for more info on making them and this is perfect. I wonder if you'd like to join my new group and list your lens in the "other artsy and crafty lenses" plexo? http://www.squidoo.com/groups/coloring_pages_books

    I found your lens on a google search; I needed a quick envelope. I found an easy template, and I favorited to come back and try the artistic ones! Great resources!

I love receiving homemade cards, and its the envelopes that always fascinate me. Thanks for pulling all these great resources together. You're officially faved 5 *****'s. Super lens!

    Great site Valerie,

    As a collage artist I often make my own envelopes to send ATC's, etc. If I had discovered your lens earlier, I could have saved weeks of stumbling around the net. Thanks, and keep up the good work.

    Very frugal making your own envelopes. If you want to save even more money you can check out my freebie lens.

    Great lens Valerie. I make my own stationery and envelopes from recycled calendars. I've been meaning to build a lens about it for awhile now. You may have inspired me to get going on it!
