There’s something about a nice colored envelope with a decorative envelope liner that can really take your stationery from boring to beautiful! But lined envelopes can be expensive to buy, and you might have trouble finding one that suites your style perfectly. So why not make your own?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It may seem complicated and a bit daunting at first, but when you really get down to it, making your own envelope liners can be easy! Plus, you’ll be able to personalize your liners with your own text or artwork, making your envelopes even more special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you’re ready to dive in, just follow along with these step-by-step instructions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Envelopes come in an array of sizes and shapes, so you’ll want to start by making sure you have the correct size template that will fit perfectly inside of your envelope. Common envelope sizes for cards and invitations include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Envelopes can also have a square-shaped flap or a pointed flap, sometimes called Euro-flap. Before making a liner, confirm the size and shape of your envelopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After confirming the size you’ll need, you will need to create a template that can be used for cutting out your envelope liners. The type of template you use will depend on what type of liner you’re creating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have specialty paper you want to use for your liners, you’ll want to cut out a physical liner template out of scrap paper or cardstock to use as a stencil. If you’re using design software to create a patterned or custom envelope liner design, you can use a digital template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
