I am sorry photobucket locked up my albums. I will repost the tutorial here: 1. Cut paper into a 3 1/2" or 4" square, wider if you need a larger envelope. 2. Fold the square into a triangle like so: 3. Fold the two flaps almost all the way to the base of the triangle: 4. Fold the two corners of the triangle toward the center: 5. Unfold the flaps. Place a piece of transparent tape over the two corners. The envelope will look like this: Please note the base of the flaps. If the two corners of the triangle are folded a little deeper so that the flaps are not perfectly triangular, small seeds will not leak out. 6. Seeds go in between the two flaps: 7. Fold down the flaps and insert it into the envelope, like so: Inserting the flap into the envelope keeps seeds from leaking out. I actually got the idea from kizzyseeds and, I believe, tidewaterlily. Both of them sent me seeds in plain folded envelopes with no tape at all. None of the seeds leaked out. Using catalogs was my idea. It's a good way to recycle seed catalogs. :-) Have fun!

michael's. look at the bottom of the rows in the bead section and you'll find these perfect little plastic zipper bags about 1.5x3". like 200 to a box, and couple bucks for that whole box. not sure, but would be willing to bet that walmart may carry them, too and if they do they'd be cheaper. but with a 40% off coupon, which is just about every week in the sunday paper, you could get a box from the craft place for next to nothing. i love being able to see what and how much is in the packet at a glance. some folks cut little cards to put in them, some take the white labels or masking tape and put on them, and some write directly on them w/sharpie. i do a lot of the last, 'cause i'm lazy, but the labels and card stock work better and are easier to read and change if you reuse the envelope. if you save a lot of the same seed, i found it was easy enough to make a little label sized box in a design program so i could print a bunch of the same label, and not have to handwrite each one. you can even include a picture. for bigger seeds or larger amounts of seed, i save my old packets that have the self stick tabs, and just slap a label or masking tape over top of what was in there. along the same lines, i always save the little glassine envelopes for fine seed or tiny amounts after i've used up seed that came in them. just call me a pack rat!

Whoa ... that is so cool, thank you.

We run into this situation at work when we do invitations for certain events. Since the wording on the inside of the invitation is done on the computer, I use two versions. The following is a little formal, but you can tailor it to your own needs: for singles: "May we cordially invite you to...."; and for those who have significant others: "May we cordially invite you and your guest to..."
