Wasnt there a movie or something called Earth Girls are Easy? I could go look it up but I would ruin my idea if Im mistaken. LOL
The idea is to reinvent a envelope out of something unusual. What a way to celebrate the end the confinement to get out to a thrift store! Woot!
HOw about a VHS sleeve sewn or taped shut on both ends? How about a Earth day bag thats heads for the trash cuz the handles are broken. Cut out a envie a pattern and secure the ends shut? What about a clothes pattern?
I dont want this to prevent you from joining but you will have to do a extra step. You may make a envie outta song sheet paper, a paper bag, or even the lowly newspaper.
To take the ordinary paper envie to the next level you must add colour to the back and front. Think gelli printing, sprays, stencils, etc. Add colour to the front and back. You may have to shore up your envelope with clear packing tape to get that delicate paper through the mail without ripping. Newspaper will definitely NOT make it through the mail.
Enclose a little gift. Your choice.
