We place a sheet of burgundy thick cardboard on the mock-up mat and measure the width of 10.5 cm, 10.5 cm and 5 cm for the pocket. The height of the envelope is 19 cm. We cut off the excess.

We draw the bend lines and first lay out the base.

You need to glue a ribbon to the bases so that the envelope is tied with a bow. We cut and glue strips of ribbon in the center, as in the photo. The edges of the ribbons are thoroughly treated with fire.

We immediately glue small blanks, as well as the back ones, to the bases, and then sew them together.

We sew both cards on the front. We tie the envelopes with a bow. Now we prepare the decorations and glue them onto our cards. We make a ruffle from lace and glue it, leaves and ribbons form a bouquet. In general, further decoration is to your taste.
