Pattern Envelope Assembly
1. Fold at each edge of the
envelope's front artwork
2. Paint glue onto the long side
tab and the bottom tab (on the color side)
3. Press the front artwork against
the glued tabs.
4. If the tabs are slightly glued
to the interior of the envelope, slip the blade tool into the
envelope and gently separate the front from back.
5. If you like, fold a pattern to
fit into the envelope and have it slightly out of the envelope for
staging purposes.
