Create a Birthday Card and Envelope With One Sheet of Paper 5

Hi! It’s Bonnie here, from Archer and Olive. To celebrate Tombow’s 105th birthday (Happy Birthday Tombow!), I’m going to teach you how to mail a Happy Birthday message with only one sheet of paper, Tombow Dual Brush Pens, and one piece of washi tape.

To begin, you will need:

• Tombow Dual Brush Pens
• Hahnemühle Hand Lettering Pads
• Washi Tape

Step 1:

Create your design! Using Tombow Dual Brush Pens, and a sheet of Hahnemühle Hand Lettering Paper, create your birthday message! I made one big banner for this birthday card, but feel free to include a personal message. If you want to use this spring inspired color palette, it was created with Dual Brush Pens in #243, #685, #277, #346, and #126.

Step 2:

Holding the page horizontally, fold the top corners into two triangles, that meet in the middle of the page.

Step 3:

Fold the bottom of the page up, so it meets the triangles.

Step 4:

Fold in the sides into the middle.

Step 5:

Fold the flap down.

Step 6:

Seal the envelope with washi tape.

Step 7:

Flip over to decorate and address the envelope. Put a stamp on it, and drop it in the custom birthday card mail!
