Lovely. Unfortunately, it’s just for Americans. The Europeans use A6 as standard size card which is a little bit bigger in both directions. But I still enjoy your videos ?
Heike, yes, this is a USA measurement. I am not familiar with the A6 size but you might try to adjust my measurements and see if you can create the template.
thanks for sharing
I have been making envelopes for years, using the Simply scored!
my hint…..I add two small pieces of tear n tape on the flap
so don’t need to do it later. Works for me.
Oh so Happy to see your stamp set in the new book!! So adorable.
have a great day, I do so enjoy your ideas.
Finally finished my envelope templates, made a few envelopes and now I don’t want to stop. This idea is genius and works every time. Thank you for sharing this neat finishing touch project with us. Love your work!!!
