Paris Envelope Booklet

Finally I was able to get to this project that I've been thinking about for weeks. After I found the Paris pattern paper in my stash, I knew exactly what I'd make. Well, not exactly because I had no idea really how this was going to come together and I'm not even sure if it's done yet! It's for my sister-in-law who loves all things Paris & has been there a couple times. I'm not worried about her seeing this because I'm pretty sure she rarely, if ever, reads our blog! I have Go Make Something in my Google Reader & was inspired by this idea. I can't quite picture how hers is but this is how mine turned out. It's all made from envelopes I saved from our mail. Inside there's 4 envelopes that can be used as pockets for receipts, stamps & labels, coupons, notes, etc. I thought she could use this to slip a picture inside each one & add comments or journaling on the outside of the envelope pockets. If she has post cards or momentos they could be used too. Just something cute to have sitting out on the table. The red & Paris papers I already had. I added ribbon, labels, tags and scraps of paper from the insides of envelopes. Now I always have to look at the pattern inside envelopes when I open the mail! Next I need inspiration to use all my blue envelope patterns!
