How to Make Hot Cocoa Packet Envelopes: The Holidays are Coming!

Greetings! I have made some decorated envelopes for hot cocoa packets or trail mix or mini microwave popcorn or even a small packet of M & M's to be slipped inside.

These are really great and versatile. You can even use them to give a gift card! I have done up a couple of examples here two for Halloween and two for Christmas and then demonstrated one for Christmas as well.

These are really simple and can be made quickly. They are a great idea for classmates, work mates, church congregations, bridal showers, baby showers or even as an extra special treat for all the neighborhood kids at Halloween!

You will be able to get 2 envelopes out of one 12x12 sheet of cardstock. I used a corner rounder on my outer flap, but you don't have to do that, I have the tools to do that so I did. I also used the Martha Steward Scoring board which is available at any craft store such as Michael's, Joanne Fabric, Archivers, Hobby Lobby etc. They run about $20.00 but if you get it at Michael's, keep an eye out for their 40 or 50% off coupons each week available in their Sunday circular or on their website. Michael's even has an iphone app that you can access scannable coupons on, right at the register!

Here are the measurements you will need:

Cut paper 11x5 inches.

Score on short side at:

2 inches and 7 inches

Score on long side at:

1/2 inch on each side.

You can decorate these any way you like!

I hope you give these a try and I hope you love them!

Happy Crafting!
