I Turn Cheap Envelopes Into Special Gifts With Hand Drawing

I am a Transylvanian photographer and graphic designer. I mostly make digital designs as my work so in my free time I like hand drawing. My favourite DIY project is to draw or paint illustrations on cheap white envelopes.

Remember when you were a child you made handmade gifts for everyone? When was the last time you actually made a gift instead of buying it? Many people complain that they don’t have enough time or skills to make a personal gift. I say that everything is possible if you really want to do it.

I know that a gift card is so easy to buy and the person can turn it into what shehe really likes. But even if you give someone a gift card or money, you can make the wrapping personal. The best way to do it is to draw or write something personal on it. I give you some tips to start and I bet you will do this for everyone :) Believe me, if you will say that you made the design, they will love it so much more! Maybe they will like the envelope better than the card/money :D

Ps.: I know that the designs are not perfect, the lines are not straight, but this is what makes it different and personal.
