I would like to join. I have a question...one of the rules is send an addressed envelope but would you accept a large label and a stamp instead? It's hard to fit an envelope inside the same size envelopes without them getting bent and messed up, or if you have suggestions on how to do so?

My tried and true technique:



I cut the little white bit off to the left of the black line I drew. Then I fold the flap down from where the black line is, which makes it a quarter inch shorter than my outside envelope but since it’s just an extra fold, as far as I know seals up fine back at it’s regular size on the other side. Then I usually put it in upside to make sure it stays folded. I still usually end having to spend more on extra thickness, but it all fits, it all seals, and it lays flat.

Thanks. I've read a few methods people have here and I managed to get it. I just don't like folding envelopes

Same here Stacy, I ended up buying a pack of size #11 envelopes to send in just for swaps, the #10 envelopes for returns fit perfectly inside without having to cut or fold them and just enough room so nothing is shifting around. I found some on amazon that weren't too expensive, pretty close to the same price as #10s.

Good evening ATC family, Happy Sunday Funday! thank you Amai and LuckycharM for jumping in to help!

I hope you all had a beautiful day! the smoke is finally clearing here, so we took the dog paddle boarding at a place here called Wildcat Lake for a bit, I was super unproductive and lazy, now off to take an after dinner bike cruise, and hoping it cools off enough to enter my art space in a bit

Thanks I'll look in to those!
