Halloween Envelope Label Tutorial

I had a fun project recently to create and address the envelopes for this Halloween

party invitation for a dear client. I thought I would share how it was done in case anyone wants to use

it to send a Halloween card.   There’s still time!

The basic tools include: adhesive labels, scissors, a corner-rounding cutter, red acrylic paint, a black brush marker and a small paint brush

I addressed the labels in a ‘spooky’ lettering style with the brush marker and cut the

corners with the rounding tool.

Then I used the scissors to ‘bite’ off the upper right corner and prominently show the teeth marks.

Use the paint brush and the acrylic paint to create the blood dripping from the bite marks. Ouch!

Now it’s like finger painting in kindergarten all over again.

Use your fingers to create the bloody prints on the label and envelope.

Be sure to also use the brush to create more bloody runs to really make it scary.

The top photo shows the label affixed to a bubble envelope that we used to mail the invitations.

But as shown in the bottom photo,you can use a regular envelope with or without the label.

This would also look cool on a white envelope or label.

Add some twists to make it your own and impress your friends.
