Three Paper Crafts From One Envelope Challenge

I’m sorry I haven’t blogged for so long but getting my YouTube channel up and running has taken so much of my time. I’m back now and hope to be a little more regular at posting here. 

I want to share a fun little challenge I am taking with the Paper Outpost Facebook group. This weeks challenge was to take one envelope and create three items from it. So here is what I did.

I started with this great kraft paper envelope.

I just cut it up into three pieces. For the two end pieces I used a glue stick to seal the flap of the envelope down.

I created two pockets and one flip up writing space to add to junk journals.

I added some paper elements, stamping and inking to the various pieces. These are the fronts.

These are the backs of the pockets. I didn’t decorate them too much as I may glue them to a journal page or tuck them under a tuck spot. Either way, only the front will really show.

This is the inside of the flip up. The back of the center part will be glued to a journal page.

I hope you try this little challenge for yourself and make three things out of one envelope. The link to the Paper Outpost Facebook group is:

You have to become a member of the group to play along, but it’s simple to request admission to the group. Each week we will be given a little challenge to try and I hope to post all my projects here on glitteronmyface.
