This is what I get up to when my sleeping patterns are reversed. C has been watching every match of the World Cup and they're generally at midnight, 2am or 4.30am, so I've been staying up to watch them with him. That being said, there's a big game on right now (5am) and he's fast asleep on the lounge! Anyway, this is the Parfait Lady - made from various free vintage ephemera. I hope you like! Click the image below to go to the full sized envelope and then save it - print quality will vary depending on your printer/paper, but I used my printers default settings to print this design at full-size on thin A4 card stock and it looked neat. Let me know if you have any problems :) I'm hoping to get better at making these and I'll put up a bunch more for you!
This is how it turned out when I printed her out;
^ Fresh from my printer.
^ Edges cut to size.
^ Tabs folded in and double-sided tape applied to edges. I find this tape is much less messy and more secure than using glue.
^ Fold and stick taped side tabs.
^ Address to someone you like, add a stamp, (perhaps an airmail sticker) fill'er up and send off!

Super cute card! Thank you for sharing this with us :) I hope I get a chance to use it soon.
If that's the Brazil vs. North Korea game I am watching it also, except it's 8pm here =)
Those envelopes look ace! Wish my printer hadn't have run outta ink, maybe I can hijack a library computer and print them =)
Thank you, hope ya have an ace morning/day too =)

Hi Bianca

I am impressed with your creativity and imagination. You are a great inspiration.
Thank you for all the ideas you share. I am off to make a concertina envelope string...
Happy days
I only had cardstock paper in a light green so I tried it and the Parfait Lady envie came out super! I can't decide if I like the front mailing or the back the best -- both so cute. Thanks!
i'm inspired to create.
If I had cardstock I'd definitely be printing this out. Thanks for sharing it!
That is so adorable!
Oh gollygeewhiz lucky ME! I was already admiring it before I saw that it turned up with my address on it... can't wait to pull that one out of my mailbox!!!
Double-sided tape is a very good idea. I need to look into that.
Thanks for sharing ^^
