Security Envelope Art
Have you ever looked at the patterns inside security envelopes you get in the mail? They come in such a gorgeous variety of colors and patterns. I know, weird to find something good about junk mail. I thought I’d make a little art project out of all the junk mail I finally dug through.
It’s a little imperfect, but so be it.
Any paper hoarders out there have ideas for security envelope creations? I’d love to hear them.

You might have stumbled onto something. What if there are secret messages encoded in the designs of the security envelopes? Cool. :D

Fabulous, I also collect bits and pieces from envelopes too. In the UK we have british gas and inside are tiny little flames which make up their logo. So cute.

Hey! I just found your blog and I think I used to blog with you at the create-a-day blog a hundred years ago- if it’s you- I was under the name myhools at that time and made label plate bracelets. I opened a new shop recently because I’ve been teaching myself to sew for a bit over a year now and I always wondered what happened to the create-a-day blog…anyway, I hope this is you! If not, ignore this babbling. :)
