Such a lovely idea. I love that the template is stuck to the back and keeps the folds accurate š
This is very neat, a great wrapper for photo memories š
Thanks for sharing Geneva š
I just wonder whether the envelopes are good to send as is. I think the post may reject them š I would put them inside regular white envelops, and the receiver would get very surprised to see yet another fun envelope inside a regular one!
Why Buy? DIY!
