DIY 3D Envelopes - Flashback Sunday

Hello everyone! Today I won't be sharing a Card or Gift Box project. Instead, I decided to share my  DIY 3D Envelopes project.  Both the latest design and the original. For those of you who love to make 3D greeting cards like me, I know you can relate when I say most of the time we discover we don't have envelopes that will accommodate the thickness of the beautiful 3D cards we've created. 

I created these 3D Envelopes to package my latest Pop-Up Invitation with 3-Tier Cake Design. This was a Custom Quinceañera Invitation and my client wanted a 3D Pop-Up with a Pocketfold and a 3-Tier Cake. I think I did justice with the final outcome. But yeah, Pocketfold Invites are too thick to fit in a regular envelope. 

I love how they turned out. The additional embellishments at the corner adds glamour on the packaging invites. 

Here's a sneak peak of the Pop-Up Invitation Pocketfold Card with 3-Tier Cake. I will be posting more about it in the coming days. I would blog more often, but Jinky's Crafts Invites is swamped these days. It's very humbling and heartwarming.. Birthday Teens love my creations. 

These 3D envelopes are the ones I made when I was still Designing for Crafter's Companion.  I am re-posting just to share the How To's.  If you spare a little time and if you have the Enveloper / Envelobox board of Crafter's Companion, you can easily create a 3D envelope. 

A chart is available here with a guide on envelope size and thickness. 

This 3D envelope was decorated  with the Sheena Douglas Christmas Stamps. 

That's it my friends, you can now add elegance to your 3D greeting cards by using a 3D Envelope. Make DIY envelopes that will coordinate perfectly with your handmade 3D card creations. You will be happy with the result. 

Thanks for stopping by and hope I inspired you today!

TIERED CAKES....

This is my favorite find. The 2-tiered Wedding Cake is surrounded with mini wedding cakes that the bride can give to every guest. It's a fabulous idea to let your guest have to take home their own tiered cake.

3D PAPER FLOWER EMBELLISHMENTS

Hello everyone. I would like to thank those of you who took the time to email me saying that they missed me.  And that I inspired you with my creations. As much as I love to share crafting tips, projects and tutorials on my blog, sometimes there just isn't enough time. I have orders for Custom Exploding Box Invitations I need to fill. So, I do hope you understand my long absence in the blogosphere. 

Today, I would like to share tips on how to make your gift boxes, place cards or escort cards more presentable. It's a little detail, that will let your recipients know that you really put an effort into the gifts or party decorations. 

The first flower is the Begonia flower. If you have a die cut or electronic cutting machine, this is very easy to make. Just download the file and assemble the flower. You can ink the edges or distress it, it is up to you. You can find my old 3D Paper Flower Tutorial here. 

These paper Begonia Flowers are a great addition to your DIY Wedding Favor Boxes, Quinceanera Gift Favor or Recordatorios, or simply use it to adorn your Place Cards or Escort Cards. 

The second Flower is a Rolled Paper Rosette. I LOVE love this paper rosettes! This 3D flower makes those ordinary escort cards extra ordinary. I think this is great for those Sweet 16th Escort cards or Quinceanera place cards/escort cards. 

You can check my previous Valentine project where I linked the tutorial on how to make paper rosettes here.

Thank you very much for stopping by today. I will continue to come up with new ideas on how to embellish your projects. Also, I am working on the 3rd Edition of my Christmas E-book, I would love to know what you would like me to include this time. Please feel free to leave me a comment and I promise to keep your input in mind for the Christmas E-book.
