Wow! I love these! The ideas would be endless. How special to send a "written" letter in one of these beautiful envelopes! Are they hard to make?

Those are great! Like Gramof 6 wrote "Are they hard to make?" Do you use wrapping paper?

Great idea and you do a beautiful job. Is this a craft hobby or do you sell them?

I just made some of those for my niece's birthday. She wanted something fancy to use as budget envelopes. My thought was to use themed fabric i.e. food pictures for grocery $, cars for gas $ etc. but she choose different colored flowery fabric.

easy, fun project - also can be embellished with buttons, etc. on outside when given as gift card holder.
