Manila envelop journal #1- Pretty Bird





This pretty little journal was created from a green hanging file folder, 2 8.5 X 11 manila envelopes and some pretty bird napkins.  


First I joined the manila envelopes together.  To add a bit more interest to the fold-able I also opened then end of the left hand envelope and cut a thumb hole.  


You can see here that the right hand envelop has opening on both sides.  I covered both with white gesso and rubbed them with vintage photo distress ink to give an aged look before cutting and decoupaging the napkins to the spread.   

As per usual, I didn't photograph the process so I will talk you though it in the  following video.  I will leave the posted pictures if you desire a closer peek.
