HOW TO MAKE AN ENVELOPE

o make an envelope, we need a piece of rectangular paper. First, get the paper, then fold it lengthwise and then unfold. Uhm…what next? Oh, yeah, fold it breadth wise and unfold again. After that, valley fold along the indicated lines like that. You see? Are you following me? Right! Let’s go to the next step. Mmm…the next step is valley fold as indicated to get this. You see, right? Good… The envelope is ready. Fold along the broken lines to close it. And you may seal it with a colorful sticker. It’s easy, isn’t it?

What do you think about the example above:
