5:23 Cutting Paper down (7wx6H - fold in 1/2) 6:02 fold the 6' side in 1/2 Place something heavy on top to flatten Time to Laminate: 6:57 place all envelopes in the sheet with the OPENINGS facing the inside
Suggestion...go to a thrift store and find a manual die cutting machine and run the papers through to flatten, or buy an inexpensive tofu or flower press. Or use a bone folder to get a crisp crease.
Thanks for sharing your process. I'm still working out the kinks when making my envelopes for personal use...and sharing with friends and family, and this was a huge help. I used to do scrapbooking when my kids were little and I have a TON of 12x12 cardstock that I just never had to heart to get rid of and now it all has a purpose. I've also been using the cardstock to make bookmarks for my kids and grandkids and laminating them and they absolutely love them. Thanks again!
Great video! Thank you :) I like to put the box or something of the right height in front of my laminator to support my page so I don't have to hold it! Hope that helps u :)
Puppers! ❤ Give them lots of kisses from me! I love dogs! Thank you for sharing! I'm planning on starting my own cash envelope shop and starting a TH-cam channel to accompany my little family on our journey to financial independence and so that I can be a SAHM while still being able to contribute financially as we're expecting our first baby in May 2022. 😁
I had to 😂 at Mork and Mindy. My brothers and I grew up watching that show afterschool. Also, great job with the envelopes! Your channel continues to grow!! 👍🏼 from your 100th subscriber 😄
I got this exact paper and love it soooooo much! My paper kinda pulled up a little after lamination and cut. Any tricks to not get the paper to pull off the lamination?
I know this probably sounds crazy but I'm new here lol. I was curious if you ever have issues with cash falling out of the envelopes? Do you use anything at the open end to make sure nothing falls out?!
How do you prevent bubbles from getting into your envelopes? I have made my own and the laminating sheets are coming off the envelopes because of air bubbles. I have tried running them through the laminator again but it does not help.
Hi Nikki! I see how that could be confusing. First, I cut 5 inches off the entire sheet. That leaves me with a 7x12 inch sheet. I cut that in half, leaving me with 2 sheets that are 7x6 inches.

Beautiful! ❤❤them. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this video. I just found out about that little arm. Mine is in storage and I’m 🤯. Thank you 😂

Hi Sue! Thank you for being my 100th subscriber and for continuing to watch!😀 I loved Mork and Mindy when I was a little girl.
I got this exact paper and love it soooooo much! My paper kinda pulled up a little after lamination and cut. Any tricks to not get the paper to pull off the lamination?
Hi Jennifer, New sub here. Thank you for the video.
Very nice !
Thank you! 😊
What do you do if the lamination doesn’t stick to the envelope? Like how would you fix that?
Love 💕 it .
what category is best for budget envelopes in etsy?
I have one like this and until I saw this video I had no idea that it had a little flip up arm thing.
I know this probably sounds crazy but I'm new here lol. I was curious if you ever have issues with cash falling out of the envelopes? Do you use anything at the open end to make sure nothing falls out?!
I've never had that problem. I thought the same thing when I first started using them, but it hasn't been an issue.
Just wondered how the kids felt, that you invaded their space 🤣🤣🤣
They love it! ❤️😊
How do you prevent bubbles from getting into your envelopes? I have made my own and the laminating sheets are coming off the envelopes because of air bubbles. I have tried running them through the laminator again but it does not help.
What kind of laminator and what kind of laminating sheets are you using?
Thanks!
How do you make two envelopes that are 7x6 out of a 12x12 sheet?
Hi Nikki! I see how that could be confusing. First, I cut 5 inches off the entire sheet. That leaves me with a 7x12 inch sheet. I cut that in half, leaving me with 2 sheets that are 7x6 inches.
i am trrying to find the envelopes on your etsy shop but i cant, do you sell them? these are for the cash envelopes right?
Hi! I no longer sell envelopes.
Also if you take a plastic card like a credit card and run it down the fold of the envelope they lie flat.
WHERE IS THIS SWIRL COLORFUL PAPER FROM 😭😭😭
I got it from Hobby Lobby.
Mork and mindy nanew nanew lol 😂
Exactly! ☺️
