Nesting Envelopes for a Gift Card


I had fun this morning making different size envelopes that will nest together to contain a gift card.    There are 7 envelopes in all.   They were all made with my Envelope Punch Board by WE R MEMORIES.



 The largest envelope would hold a 5.5 X 7 inch card.   It was cut from a 10 1/8 X 10 1/8 inch paper and the first score was at 4.5 inches.


The next envelope was cut from a piece of paper measuring 9 1/4 X 9 1/4 inches.   The first score was at 4 inches


The next envelope was made froma 8.5 inch square piece of paper.   The first score for this one was at 3 3/4 inches.


Then a piece of paper that was 7 7/8 inch square.   That score was at 3 3/8.


A 7 1/4 inch square piece of paper made the next envelope.   I made the first score and cut at 3 1/8 inch for this envelope.


The next envelope was made from a 6 X 6 inch piece of paper and scored at 2 5/8.


Finally the gift card was placed inside an envelope made from a 5 X 5 piece of cardstock and scored at 2 inches.

I hope the person who gets this gift card will have as much fun opening it as I did making the envelopes.
