CF: Nesting Envelopes

Most of you know what nesting dolls are right? It usually starts with a large, colorful wooden doll that opens up to reveal a smaller doll, which also opens up to reveal yet a smaller doll, and so on and so forth until you end up with the last tiny doll.

In this swap, we will use same concept but we will be doing it with envelopes. You will start with a larger handmade envelope and keep making envelopes a bit smaller so they all nest inside each other until you have a teeny, tiny envelope into which you will put a small treasure. This treasure can be a teeny card, embellishment, a pretty inchie, stickers, etc.

Please make your envelopes out of pretty papers (no plain paper, magazine or book pages).

Keep in mind that you are to send at least 5 nesting envelopes to your partner, but if you want to challenge yourself to see just how many you can get to nest, feel free to do so. The outer mailing envelope can be #5 if you want.

Only seal the outer envelope that your envelopes are being sent in, so that your partner can use the envelopes on the inside if they choose to do so.

Swap is sender's choice, so we can start making our envelopes now and finding something fun for the tiny surprise :)
