What is a loaded envelope?

What is a loaded envelope?

It is an envelope that is handmade and decorated pretty.  It is loaded with tags, wands, a card, handmade embellishments or store bought embellishments, and etc. 

For a non-crafter, you can load it with tags, a card, a gift card, a pair of earrings or a bracelet.

How to make a loaded envelope?

There are several videos on YouTube.   Just do a search "loaded envelope tutorial".

There are lots of versions.  You can use a 6x9 envelope and cover with scrapbook paper and then add pockets.

You also can make an envelope with one 12x12 piece of scrapbook paper.

I have had my loaded envelope published in a magazine.  Here is a 4 step quick way of making it.



















I have a Pinterest board with lots of beautiful examples:
