Ever forget to lift an envelope with your card, or want a cool way to send a gift card? Or maybe you just appreciate stationary and love to send letters in a creative way. Whatever the case, this cute envelope is a great way to make whatever you're sending more personal and unique. It's a quick make - under 10 minutes, and is so easy you could even do it with kids. Start by cutting four circles from your paper. Use something circular to draw around. For my envelope I used a large mug, which created a 10cm x 10cm envelope. Fold each of the circles in half, then slot together, overlapping each of them in the same way you'd close a cardboard box. Glue under each tab to secure it. NOTE: To see how big your envelope will turn out, look at the diameter of your circle.... the width will be the same width of the finished piece! Fold in the tabs in in the same way, and finish with a piece of ribbon to close. Alternatively, you could glue a button to the centre, but this means it can't be reused.
