I love to entertain, however, finding unique party favors can be a bit of a challenge.  So here’s a simple party envelope favor you can make then fill with all sorts of surprises!

Party Envelope Favor

Supplies and Materials:
  • Cardboard monogram
  • White linen paper
  • Large white button
  • Aqua Grosgrain Ribbon
  • Aqua stud
  • Aqua slide
  • Aqua chalk or colored pencil
  • Glue

Tools:

  • Cutting mat
  • Rotary cutter
  • Straight edge ruler
  • Decorative edge scissors
  • Paper bone for scoring paper

Use photo as guide. Finished Size:  3”x 3 ¾”

Instructions:

  1. Using rotary cutter, mat and ruler cut paper to measure 7 ½” x  4”.
  2. Cut one short end with decorative scissors.  This will be your front flap.
  3. Score then fold long edges in ½ inch.
  4. Fold envelop flap over approximately 1 ½ inches then fold envelop in half from top of flap fold.
