Envelope Booklet.


I got the idea from Patricia Viramontes, except I only used one envelope and one coin envelope in the back. This is the front of my envelope. I made mine with the EPB, then covered it in old book pages.


I cut my envelope tabs down a bit on the sides, so when you insert ephemera it's a bit easier.
On the right I just added a pocket with an acetate window.


Without the envelope insert.


This is a little envelope I made while back. It has a small tag, that fits in the shaker pocket, to keep the envelope flap closed.

When you fold it open again, you have another pocket in the center.



The inserts for the middle pocket.

Here I just made a faux filmstrip pocket. Underneath I used tracing paper folded in half, to keep the "goodies" inside. I also sewed around it, since it's easier then using glue on it.



Inserts for this pocket.


This is the back. Here I used a coin envelope, covered it, and cut the one side open. The 2 tags are holding it shut.

I made a file folder card as an insert.






This was a fun project. Thank you for the inspiration.
