Hello everyone! Back again with another mystery unboxing swap. This time, as a countdown to Valentine's Day!

We will make 14 envelopes similar to THIS video, and fill them with 14 days of surprises for our partner! Just as a note, you do not have to use 6x8 paper pads or Valentine's Day themed paper, you can cut your paper to size and it can be any style that you think your partner will enjoy. You also don't strictly have to follow her tutorial on how to make the envelopes, I just included it for people that were unsure of how to make them on their own. If you have an envelope punch board and that's how you make your envelopes, do that instead if you'd like. The only requirement is that it be patterned paper in an envelope shape with a little decoration and a surprise inside! Make your envelopes huge and stuff them full, or make them small and put something very special inside, size is up to you!

As for what to include in your envelopes, here is a short list of possibilities that I could think of, but feel free to base yours off your partner's profile if you'd rather:

5 wax seals (handmade)

2 sticker sheets

10 sticker flakes

Postcards

Pretty Scrap Papers (no smaller than 4x6”)

Scrap Ribbon (12+ inches)

Notecard + Envelope

10 Pieces Paper Ephemera (think ticket stubs etc)

4 Shaped Paper Clips

Washi Tape

Memo Sheets

Sketch/ATC

Die Cuts (Store Bought/Handmade)

Stamped Images

Cling Stamps (New/From Stash)

2 Sealed Tea Bags (if your partner likes that)

Assorted Playing Cards

Something Local to You (Think Postcards or Flattened Pennies)

Fabric Scraps/Sari Silk

Vintage Book Pages

Valentine's Day Ephemera

Candies (if you can fit them!)

Face Masks

Anything extra you send is up to you!

Postage on this will be more than your average swap, so be mindful of that as you design your Valentine's mystery gifts! If you have any question please feel free to reach out. Happy swapping!
