E for Envelopes Journal Tutorial

Save those junk mail envelopes, especially the ones with security patterns inside that are sooooo useful for collage and such. Starting with a big stash of envelopes, I experiment with making a journal with ONLY junk mail envelopes, something I've never done before. Will it work?

I am joining @Sevenplaza and @CraftyByToni in April for their #ABCApril2025 prompt calendar. The goal being to create videos that explain and demonstrate various components of journal making.
Use the hashtag to find all the videos Margreth, Toni, and everyone else is using for the month of April 2025 and beyond.

Thanks so much for watching! Let me know what you think.

One of my very first videos was Green Leaves Journals with envelopes for a cover:    • Green Leaves Journals Flip-Through  
I wasn't very good with video yet but the journals are nice.
