Lining your envelopes is a quick way to add a personal touch to a letter, but buying printed paper can get expensive. Here are some quick tips and tricks to making your own envelope liners.

Time: 45 minutes
Materials: plain white paper, paint (I used watercolors), brush/q-tip/eraser 

*Q-Tips will give you a textured and imperfect polka dot

 
*Twirling an eraser will make more dramatic and messy polka dots. 

 
*For a cleaner line, draw your design with water color pencils then go over with a wet brush.

 
*Don’t feel afraid to experiment! Once you’re done, you can choose the ones you like the best.
