Picture Folder

Hello blog fans!

I'm glad you're here today.

Today I'm showing you a little gift I made for my

98 yr old Aunt Marilyn.

Here's a picture of my sweet Aunt Marilyn.
Looks great and wouldn't guess she's 98 yrs. old.

She lives in a nursing home in North Carolina

and I haven't been able to see her for over 2 yrs.

She loves having pictures of our family, so 
I made this little folder to send her some 

family pictures in.

I started with 2 envelopes.

These are 5 3/4 x 8 3/4 so I would be able to send

5x7 pictures.  You can make this with any

sized envelope you have.

I then slid one flap inside the other envelope and 

sealed the one on the back outside.

Don't seal the one going inside the envelope,

you can, however glue that flap in place if  you want to.

Once they are together, all you need to do is 

decorate your folder.

I decided to cut away part of the inside to make it easier 

for Aunt Marilyn to pull the pictures out.

The piece inside is simply a sheet of light weight

card stock, slipped in.  No gluing needed for that piece.

I think it turned out great and it makes a nice 

safe place to keep photos and/or letters.

Here's one of the pictures of the family that I sent 

to her.  This was taken on St. Patrick's day 2021.

Thanks for stopping in today and spending a little time

with me.  I hope you'll give this little project a try, it makes

a nice little holder for any pictures you want to give someone.

And it's quick and easy to make.

Come again soon,

until then,

share some memories with someone

you haven't seen for a while.
