hi everyone Anette kler here with a new
0:11
video tutorial and today I'm going to
0:13
show you how to make a really cool heart
0:16
envelope so you need an A4 paper it can
0:19
be a double-sided or it can be just a
0:21
regular paper we're going to start by
0:24
making a diagonal
0:26
fold aligning it with the left side of
0:29
the paper
0:31
agage I always like to use a bone folder
0:33
for all my
0:36
folding now we're going to bring the top
0:39
and fold it like
0:41
this again always align it with the left
0:46
side now let's open the folds and fold
0:50
the bottom all the way up to that
0:53
horizontal fold line that we did so
0:56
basically we have divided the A4 paper
1:00
into three
1:02
parts next we're going to fold the
1:05
bottom up to the first score
1:09
line just making sure it reaches that
1:11
score
1:16
line and
1:18
then we're going to flip the paper and
1:23
fold it in half vertically like
1:28
this in just a few folds we're going to
1:31
have a really cool heart on the front
1:34
and an envelope all in
1:38
one
1:40
next open the
1:42
fold and fold the corners diagonally
1:47
aligning it with that
1:49
Center score line that we just
1:55
did always burnish the
1:58
folds Now flip the
2:02
paper and
2:05
then bring the
2:07
corner all the
2:11
way up to the score line it's a little
2:16
hard to see but there is a score line
2:17
there the one that we did in the
2:20
beginning the horizontal score
2:25
line burnish the folds
2:28
well and then flip the paper and now
2:32
we're going to fold the top of the heart
2:34
shape so you're going to open the fold
2:37
like this flatten it making sure it's
2:42
straight and
2:44
then fold the corner all the way
2:50
down and then the top all the way down
2:53
as well you're going to fold up until
2:57
the line
3:00
of that paper and we're going to do the
3:03
exact same thing on the other
3:07
side it's few little
3:13
folds and you're basically going to have
3:17
a heart so what I'm going to
3:20
do I'm going to zoom in and do it again
3:24
up close so you will see how to do these
3:28
folds so I'm going this is the what we
3:32
started with we're going to open the
3:35
fold making sure it's flattened and
3:39
then fold the corner and then the top
3:43
and then we're going to repeat that with
3:45
the other side so I hope that's
3:48
clear oops wrong
3:52
way now we can flip the paper and you
3:56
have a heart Isn't that cool so now let
3:59
Let's Fold the sides to create an
4:04
envelope so just fold them
4:06
straight on both
4:17
sides and
4:20
then we're going to
4:22
attach the sides to create an envelope
4:26
this one goes on the bottom under the
4:29
heart
4:32
if you need to adjust the fold you might
4:35
need to do that because if the paper is
4:37
a little bit thick then maybe you will
4:40
need to move the fold a little bit but
4:43
just make sure it goes under the heart
4:46
now let's open it back attach glue you
4:49
can use whatever glue that you
4:51
want just make sure that your
4:54
heart is still folded
5:00
I'm going to put some liquid glue just
5:02
to make sure everything is really
5:06
strong so we're going to do that on both
5:08
sides and then
5:10
glue the envelope and then you can
5:13
insert a card a little
5:18
gift a gift tag whatever whatever a gift
5:22
card whatever you want you can insert
5:25
into that camera now I haven't tried
5:28
this envelope with other size papers but
5:30
you can try and see if you can manage it
5:35
you can't use
5:38
um Square paper that will not work so it
5:41
needs to be basically in the same
5:46
dimensions or similar Dimensions to an
5:49
A4 or 8 and 1/2 by 11 will work as well
5:54
just try and see how it works oops
5:58
didn't put enough glue
6:01
and this is how my envelope looks after
6:04
I've embellished it a little
6:07
bit added a few embellishments I really
6:10
