More Coin Envelope Booklets








Warning:
Making these coin booklets is addictive. I can't stop.
And now I've run out of the
coin envelopes.

I have started three more using similar envelopes that are
a lot bigger -- with a book/library theme...

Do you like these?

  1. I do! I do! I do! I know what I'd put in them if I knew how to make them too. I have a box of such envelopes from a family reunion raffle that would be great for such a project. I just have to find them. :) And learn how to make them. Or not? Where do you get such great ideas?

  3. Pamela, These are amazing! Keep going and don't stop. I love them. I have a box of coin envelopes and once I unearth them I can help replenish your stock. I also have some other small envelopes that open at the top on the horizontal party that can be a challenge for you. And of course you can use my envelope die whenever we meet in my studio again. I LOVE my photo/darkroom/camera coin envelope book you mailed me!

  5. I love them! I have made a few with larger envelopes, came across a box of gorgeous dark red tiny (but bigger than these) and made a couple of books with ATCs in the pockets.

    1. sallyw3000 -- thank you pal! They are 500 to a box at office depot and $25 -- I am not so sure I want 500 of the same size......I made that one with the stamped numbers for Jeff W (hope he doesn't see this) because his book to you was the inspiration.....I will put you on the list to get one.....xo

  7. I hope the coin envelope book I sent you has made it to you by now. Although I felt a bit like I was carrying coals to Newcastle, I wanted to send you some happy mail and show how you have inspired me. I'm going to look for some more of those envelopes at thrift stores - maybe I'll get lucky. They are great fun!

  10. Yes, these are very cute. Even better in person lol. Will stop at Staples and buy a box of these as they are the perfect venue for all those rubber stamps I couldn't live without but hardly use.

    1. Go for it -- they are easy an fun to a make! I am loving that booklet you made me and especially love the pix of the little childhood YOU. I could only find coin envelopes 500 for $25. Let me know if Staples is better. i don't really want 500.But I would probably use them up.....
