DIY Envelopes

Time: 15 minutes
Materials: Martha Stewart scoring board, paper, scissors, tape runner

1. There are two ways to make your template. You can follow the instructions on the back of your MS scoring board, or you can find an old envelope, open it up and trace it. I chose to do the latter.

2. Cut out your pattern.

3. Use the scoring board to make accurate and straight lines for folding. If your paper is thin, avoid pressing too hard as you might make a cut instead of a crease.

4. Fold in the two sides first, without taping. Tape will only go on the long sides of the final flap. 

5. When you’re ready to mail, just secure with tape either on the inside or outside.
