This is my latest skill to acquire, but one I am really enjoying. This is also a craft that can be completely personalized. Some ideas I've had so far are using newspaper from the day a baby was born to make birth announcements or birthday cards, using wedding programs to make anniversary cards, and, of course, invitations, Christmas and birthday cards, as well as paper just to have around. This paper is also excellent for scrapbooking borders and items, as well as for recipe/notecards. Just email me to discuss pricing on speciality items.
I am naming my paper projects for their components, so, the paper pictured above is named 'tree paper' because that is what it looks like to me. More examples will be coming soon.
Paper making is very labor intensive, requiring a lot of time and a lot of steps. I need at least a week's notice for small orders and two weeks notice for larger orders.
While I can make envelopes to go with paper projects, I have been told by other paper makers that hand made paper envelopes sometimes do not survive the rigors of the modern postal service. Therefore, if you are going to mail your cards, I would suggest that you use commercial envelopes, which I can order in any of a variety of sizes and colors for you. If you are just going to hand out your cards, I'll be more than happy to hand make envelopes for you.
6 pack of cards with commercial envelopes $15
6 pack of cards with hand made envelopes $25
