Handmade gift envelopes and certificates are now becoming more and more popular. What is so good about handmade envelopes? The answer is quite logical and simple, they are unique and it is almost impossible to repeat them 100%, even if they are made by the same master. In addition, for such gift envelopes you can choose a specific picture, inscription, or make, for example, an interesting thematic collage. This is especially true for various envelopes, postcards, and certificates for men. For example, for any profession you can choose a picture and a personal inscription that corresponds to the profile, or, conversely, an interesting die-cut or chipboard as an inscription. In a word, gift envelopes are unique and interesting present. Right now we will start making such envelopes.

So, we need to take the following:
  • The cardboard is black and marbled with a yellow tint;
  • Scrappaper for men, size 20 by 20 cm, three sheets and some small scraps;
  • Pictures with coffee, watches, gears and other masculine attributes;
  • Cardboard cutouts with the inscriptions “To my beloved husband”, “Congratulations”, “Happy Holidays to you”;
  • We also take gears, a machine, stars and branches from the die cutting;
  • Bronze metal brads;
  • Metal bronze watch pendants of two types;
  • Half pearl brown;
  • Cutting clocks and gears of different shapes;
  • Dark brown satin ribbon 12 mm wide;
  • Whatman;
  • Ink pad for tinting;
  • Glue stick, double-sided tape;
  • Ruler, corner hole punch, pencil, lighter and scissors.

We take A4 cardboard, unfold it and divide it into sections 7 cm by 10.5 cm by 7 cm. Draw the bend lines from top to bottom, and cut off the excess.

We fold it and get a blank in the form of an envelope. Now we take the corner rounder and make beautiful corners.

We do the same with the second marble cardboard. And from the third sheet of cardboard we prepare the base, like a postcard measuring 9.5 by 16 cm when folded. Now we cut strips of satin ribbon, we need 6 pieces in total. We burn the edges of each tape on both sides and glue it to all bases using double-sided tape.

For each envelope, cut out three scrap elements from scrap paper. We also round some of the corners.

We glue the prepared scrap paper elements on the back and inside with strips of double-sided tape. We simply attach the front parts and attach pictures and decor.

We sew on the pictures, glue all the die-cuts. Inside the postcard envelope we paste a piece of whatman paper, pre-tinting its edges so that you can write your wishes there, and on the left side inside we will have a small pocket for money. We insert pendants into the brads and attach them to the pictures. Now we glue the front scrap elements to the envelopes and sew them on.

    In fact, this is a very necessary thing, because in most stores the envelopes are terrible. It's nice to hold such things in your hands. Stylish, with love, from the heart.
