I made envelopes from pages I coloured a long time ago. I didn’t want to keep them anymore, but I didn’t want to just recycle them, either.
Another great source for cool envelopes!

Great idea! I’ve thought about envelopes from unused coloring pages, but for some reason it never occurred to me to use “used” ones

Nice! But are you able to use them for mail without sticking on a white address sticker or are these intended to hand deliver? They are too pretty to just put in the recycle bin!
You can also cut them up and piece them randomly like a jigsaw puzzle onto a notecard. I did that with my used coloring pages. They also make great starting backgrounds for masterboards to use for ATCs, junk journals, etc.

Oops! I just realized I never entered this.
I do both hand delivery with these as well as adding a white sticker for the mailing address. I try to place it strategically so it doesn’t cover too much of the art (and I try to write small, lol!)

You can also use them in journals…I made an entire journal using just envelopes. I use the envelopes to hold stickers and other fun stuff for mail.

Great idea! I always enjoy a good coloring page, but don’t know what to do with image once it’s finished. This is a perfect upcycle! Receiving mail with a fun envelope is always a delight! Thanks:)
