Envelopes are messengers. They carry our stories, our secrets, our ideas, our dreams, experiences, curiosities, and what nots. They are sacred spaces that provide safe passages to the significance within them. They are places where conversations travel between minds, bodies, and souls. They are places of hope, anticipation, and answered prayers. They remind us that we’re loved, remembered, cared for, and worthy.
This is the place to learn how to create your messengers. During each project, I will guide you through how I create my envelopes from start to finish so you are able to create yours. I will share my inspiration, creative thought process, my mistakes and challenges, techniques, tools, and supplies with you.
Each project provides you with the opportunity to create a piece of art to send out into the world that is unique and beautiful.
