Depending on the bulkiness of your card, the size of your envelope can vary slightly. Making your own envelope to fit an A2 sized card it very simple as well.

Fold the card in half and viola – you are done!įor each piece of 8.5 x 11 inch cardstock, you will get two A2 size cards using the steps above. To create clean folded lines, I use this Martha Stewart scoring board. This will create a fold line in the card at the 4.25-inch mark, like in the photo below. This should leave you with two pieces that measure 5.5 inches by 8.5 inches.Ĭard Step 2: Score (or fold) down the middle of each piece on the 8.5 inch side.

Card and Envelope size Guide (you can download mine from my free resource library – get the password at the bottom of this post)īefore you make your envelopes, you should make some cards that will fit the envelope! Making an A2 size card is very easy to do.

Adhesive (I love my Scotch ATG Tape Runner).

Scoring Board & Envelope Tool (I use this one by Martha Stewart).

Paper trimmer ( Fiskars is my favorite).

8.5 x 11 Cardstock ( pack of 50 sheets in any color).

You are finished with your leather envelope clutch. Step 8. Screw the top (stud) of screw back on top.

Next the bottom corner on top of screw back and finally the top corner. Place the screw back on the backside of the right corner. Start by folding in the right side, left side, bottom to top. Make sure to line the holes up by folding the corners into the middle.

Using the leather hole punch, punch a hole in each corner. Step 5. Place the sticky side to the inside of the leather clutch and iron using low heat. Step 4. Remove a side of the fusible appliqué paper and place on the back side of fabric and iron. Using the template, trace the portion of the top of the envelope onto the wrong (back) side of fabric. Next, get the fabric ready for lining the inside of clutch. You want the holes to match up when folded together. Mark a spot on the corners where the hole punch will go. Cut the leather using leather shears or sharp scissors. Note: cut the templates to the edge of paper. For the 4.5 in x 6 in large envelope clutch, print two copies of template, cut and tape together. For the 3.5 in x 5 in small clutch, trace the template on the backside of the leather. Supplies: leather / Brass stud screw backs / printed cotton fabric / Fusible appliqué paper / sharp scissors / Leather hole punch / small template / large template

Read more for the full tutorial. I made a few different sized leather envelope clutches using the envelope method. I found an old envelope style card stock journal and knew I wanted to make something from this technique. I had some leftover leather scraps from my friend Heather and I knew I had found my next no-sew project! I also have “borrowed” her leather for these projects Leather Hair Clips and the No-Sew Rope Basket. In my quest to completely finish unpacking, I was sorting through my notebook collection (yes, collection).
