Since starting TPK in 2012, I have calligraphed 1000+ envelopes. Some of those envelopes have been for events like weddings, while others were purely made for pleasure! In this Marvelous Mail eBook, I’ll share all my secrets for creating envelope calligraphy that stands out. In the eBook, you’ll find:

  • Instructions over how to create your own envelope guidelines templates – and you’ll receive access to all four of the printable templates that I use!
  • A tutorial for creating perfectly centered calligraphy (symmetrical envelope calligraphy is the pinnacle of elegance)!
  • Tons of envelope inspiration that will make you excited to create some gorgeous mail!
  • TPK’s beloved “Roses Illustration Template” to help you to make vintage rose-themed mail art.

Description

Marvelous Mail is a 43-page eBook that comes to you in PDF format. Once you check out, you will receive access to it! I recommend reading the eBook on your computer or your iPad (it works beautifully in the Kindle app). There are a few pages you may want to print out individually, like the envelope calligraphy guidelines templates. However, most of the information and graphics are best enjoyed on a screen! No matter how you choose to read, you will get excited about making some incredible envelope calligraphy!

I felt inspired to make this eBook as a replacement for/sequel to TPK’s beloved Amazing Envelopes for a Latte, which appeared in the TPK catalog from mid-2015 to mid-2019. People loved the envelope guidelines templates in Amazing Envelopes. That’s why you’ll see them again here in Marvelous Mail!

Here’s an index of what’s included in this printable PDF set:

  • Explanation of supplies
  • Suggestions for choosing lettering styles for your envelopes
  • Inspiration for envelope backs
  • Envelope liner inspiration
  • Instructions over how to DIY an address guidelines template
  • Pre-made (printable) address guidelines templates
  • Instructions over centering your envelopes
  • Suggestions for saving time (for large envelope jobs)
  • Tips for playing nice with the post office
  • Postage inspiration
  • Design element tutorials
  • Inspirational envelope photos organized by occasion (formal events, holidays, themes)
  • Bonus “Roses Illustration” traceable printable
  • Additional resources
