I’m a tiny bit in love with these tiny love notes.
I mean really, I’m kind of dying from the cuteness over here.
The heart is from a paper punch, but if you’re interested in making your own tiny envelopes, here is a tutorial of sorts. Actually, this is more of a pictorial of sorts.
Tiny Envelope Tutorial
You can use any size square to make these envelopes, but for these tiny envelopes I used 2in x 2in. Hopefully your paper will have a straighter edge than mine did. You’ll also need a glue stick. And if precision is your thing, grab your ruler and scissors, too.
*For step # 9, you’re opening that little triangle fold and then smooshing it down onto itself. This is your closure.
*Step 10-11 isn’t completely necessary, but I’m a fan of the glue stick. You’re not gluing down the 3/4 strip, you’re only gluing down the flaps. So, only place a bit of glue on the 3/4 strip, and only glue the flaps down. Got it? Don’t glue the little closure, you’re gonna need that to keep the top flap closed. I forgot to add a picture of this, but after gluing, fold the flaps back in like picture #9.
Happy Valentine making, D.I.Y.’ers!
