Tutorial: Altered Security Envelopes

[@conishkee]

8/13/24: Just when I thought I'd seen it all, here comes this project. OMG, I was totally mesmerized by the technique and all that you used in putting it together. I am so inspired to make a few now that I have a stack of envelopes waiting in the wings craving to be dressed up! This is a gift in and of itself and whomever I give it to, I hope they appreciate the work that goes into it and keeps them someplace special forever. Thank you for sharing it. It was fun to watch. And WOW!!, you have a household of creative people. Love that too! 💗

[@cuteniquestudio]

So excited you're inspired to make these! They are super duper fun.

Wallpaper books from paint stores are great paper to use.Years ago one place gave a grocery cart full of discontinued books.Now they may sell them.

My daughter calls me a dork too, dorks are super cool in my book! Love your Mary little mistakes! It can be the imperfections that make something truly beautiful! Love you envelope, can’t wait to try you tips, I really appreciate you sharing your time and ideas!

[@cuteniquestudio]

Thank you :)

[@LynsAlteredArts]

Very pretty, I put napkins on envelopes before but I just used a glue stick and I never bothered to open them up and decorate the inside. Yours are very nice.

[@cuteniquestudio]

Thank you :)

[@glendamenendez9433]

Beautiful work you do.I love the idea of “sisters journals” I encourage all of you whose sisters are still alive to adopt this idea. How wonderful. However, You have inspired me to make 2 journals for my daughters and encourage them to follow through and in turn get my 2 granddaughters to do the same. Thanks so much for inspire me. God bless you

Hi, You Tube recommended this project for me, and it’s a great tutorial! Thank you for sharing your process on how to make these security envelopes! They turned out great! I’ll go look for more of your videos, now. Watching from Canada. Happy 4th, 2022!

Fun work. I like your attitude .

[@cuteniquestudio]

Thank you :)

[@JoansJunkJournalsAndMore]

Wow, those are so gorgeous. I need to get more ribbon, laces, trim etc and then I can make some of these. I can see how they would really expand a journal and make it fatter, but so gorgeous. Liked and subscribed. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. ☺♥

[@saragarddiner9244]

Yes, Just lovely work! They look so nice. Going to give this a try. Thank you Sara x

[@rondaherriott]

I love it! I think I’d try to sandwich the window between the layers inside. I wonder if that would work 🤔

[@cuteniquestudio]

Probably so!

[@tenatucker3387]

Gorgeous project ❤

[@elizabethflorez2372]

Awww You took a beautiful envelope with that gorgeous napkin that was perfect . I love flowers pearls bling lace feathers 🪶 but that envelope was so pretty just left alone .❤ I was so shocked to see it finished . It looked so not as nice as it was before. You taught me less is best. So Thank you 🎉you taught me to be careful not to over kill with product just because I have a lot of it. Thank you ❤ You are very creative. These envelopes are beautifully created . I can hardly wait to get started. I love those napkins you used so beautiful. You are so blessed with your children. What a wonderful mom you are. Those children are being themselves. The don playing the piano , your daughter baking … you are the best mom ever. ❤God bless you. The birds are even happy I’ll singing lol 😆 Amazing twin journals. Thank you❤

[@TheTruckingScribe]

I love decorating envelopes, but I haven’t tried napkin. 💜💜💜

[@mariad4183]

[@Southern_Crafty_Lady]

This is the easiest one I've seen!

[@MsLouisVee]

Thank you for clarifying mod podge. It is not Modge Podge!!!. Thank you.

[@brendasmith-allen4601]

A sister journal is so sweet. I'm an only child so I never had that relationship. Yes it hurts a little.

[@cuteniquestudio]

awweee. I now have several Junk Journal Penpals over the years who we exchange little handmade things often, so I may suggest doing BFF Journals in the same concept! I like that idea.

[@tavanetaylor98]

I found you on Pinterest and I’m so glad! I really like your style. I love napkins and hadn’t tried this technique yet. Great tutorial!💙

[@cuteniquestudio]

Thank you so much!

[@cuteniquestudio]

By the way; or BTW, my journals are going to be an interactive art exhibit this coming month in Johnson City, TN! www.erwinrecord.net/living/erwin-couple-to-present-art-exhibit-on-june-7/article_074aa28e-1dce-11ef-a0df-4fe2072720c3.html

[@maryharris631]

Tuesday Morning is gone now. I guess it didn't survive the lockdowns. I miss them especially for napkins.

[@cuteniquestudio]

They are sorely missed, especially their napkin selection.

[@quiltngrandma45]

I take my napkins and copy it and use printer paper and it's easier to use,

[@cuteniquestudio]

Brilliant idea!

[@carolwolfgang9503]

❤❤❤

[@pamsearles]

What is the function of the altered envelope

[@cuteniquestudio]

Hi Pam, I put stationary inside the envelope then tuck the envelope inside of my junk journals, so it's decorative and functional by providing extra writing space at the same time.

[@mariapatriciachavez214]

[@Imjinks64.]

Can't hear you 😢

[@cuteniquestudio]

Hi Ginger! I'm not sure why but just tested and I'm able to hear it, as well all the comments below were. Perhaps some audio issue on your end?

[@Imjinks64.]

I'm not sure. My volume is up to max and the other videos are loud enough. There was another budgeting one the same way. Maybe the voices are too soft or 🎤 too far away. Just thought you might like to know

[@cuteniquestudio]

@@Imjinks64. Absolutely! Thanks for letting me know.
