I've just tried a card that I saw demonstrated on C & C yesterday (Nancy I think, I only caught the last part of the program!) where you fold an A4
piece of card down the DL mark so that the front is DL size and the back is wider (sorry, not very good description). My question is, what size envelope do
you use for these cards? Would I need to make my own and need to have A3 paper to make one?
Thanks Dee x |

I buy white A4 size envelopes and cut them down.
Landscape orientation, measure the size of the finished card and add 4cms (for the envelope flap). Cut off the excess and fold over(onto the reverse of the envelope) what will be the flap of the envelope ensuring that the card will fit inside. Cut away the back half of the flap and round the flap corners with a corner punch. Fix a strip of double sided tape for sealing. Sheila W. |

Thank you all - I'll have a go. Thought I'd probably have to make one, but was just hoping that there might be one available! Wrapping paper is a nice
idea too, and I hadn't thought of a box.
