How to make DIY Vintage French Envelopes

Hello, friends! Hope you are well and safe, wherever you are! Today I’m sharing a new tutorial, I will be showing you how to make these charming DIY Vintage French Envelopes! This project will hopefully bring some good energy and positive vibes into your life, precious things that we all need these days. And maybe a smile? :)

I would say that no matter where you are in your creative journey right now, you definitely need a beautiful set of vintage envelopes! :) They are easy to integrate into any other projects, can be easily turned into amazing embellishment for gifts or flower bouquets, can be used to store different small souvenirs around your home or scrap pieces of paper in your art journal. You can even use them to store dried lavender in your drawers, there are so many possibilities when it comes to actually putting these beauties to good use.

All the images that I included into this AH-MAZING design are as always, from The Graphics Fairy! That place is like an endless source of inspiration for me, I just love finding new and new uses for all the beautiful graphics from there! Even the vintage envelope template is from The Graphics Fairy! And what about these stunning birds on the branch? Or the sheet music and all the French typography? Not to mention the elegant decorative embellishments … don’t you just LOVE them all? :)

To make things easier for you, I actually created 3 sizes for these chic DIY Vintage French Envelopes, so you’ll have 3 different free printables! This way you can easily adapt them to your needs, no matter the situation.
