How to Fold an Envelope

A new video went up today! 
Today, I'm showing you a method for making an envelope for any size of card.


You will need:
-paper
-scissors
-ruler
-pencil
-glue


Tips:

-If your card is not a rectangle or square (it has one or more rounded or irregular sides, etc.) instead of tracing the card, draw a rectangle or square that the card will easily fit in. 
Then, just follow the instructions in the video.

-If the paper is not big enough, even after you've turned the card diagonally, you could tape or glue two pieces of paper together, then just follow the video.
