Has anyone ordered A2 envelopes in bulk that are just like the ones Stampin Up sells? I've been buying a mixture of Stampin Up as well as boxes of 250 from a local printing store. I've just not found the great envelopes that Stampin Up sells in bulk quantity.

Clearbags.com has loads of envelopes and you'll likely find a similar one there. I do not buy their premium envelopes so mine are not exactly like Stampin' Up!'s but I still love them. I bet you'll find what you are looking for in the Premium Envelopes section. You can request up to 3 samples at no charge (not even a mailing charge) so that you can see and feel before you buy. The company also has excellent customer service, quick order fulfillment and shipping, and bulk pricing.

I order envelopes from this company in Ohio. They have a storefront and travel to papercrafting shows. In November they have a 25% off everything and free (or discounted) shipping. The envelopes are square flaps and a great weight. They have white and natural. They offer so many paper types! Marcos Paper
I don't buy Stampin' Up products so I can't speak to that comparison, but I bought a bulk supply from Amazon - 500 A2 envelopes for around $31. I was surprised at how smooth and heavyweight the paper is. Very pleased.

Can you provide a link to the exact ones you liked, Please?

These are the ones I got. $31.99 for 500. They came well packaged and the box itself was sealed in plastic and then was inside the Amazon shipping box.
I don't buy Stampin Up envelopes (or really much of anything). I love PaperPapers.com. I'm on the email list, and I stock up when they send out the half off of clearance price offer. There are always various envelopes in clearance. I get lots (and lots, and lots...) of my cardstock there too. Just placed an order last week, when they had the half off (using the promo code dailydeal- but I'm not guaranteeing that's still valid). They had TONS of cs/envelopes in the clearance.
Thanks everyone. I've been getting emails from The PaperMill Store and spoke to an employee who guided me in choosing a good quality envelope. I've ordered paper from them before so I already had an account set up with them. She told me 70lb or 80lb weight is the best. This is a bit more expensive than what I usually pay, but I'm going to try it. https://www.thepapermillstore.com/cl...box.html?qty=1
I've also ordered items from Marco's. But it took a super long time to get the paper trimmer I ordered from them. I think it was due to all the supply chain issues though. They were also very helpful.

While we're on the topic, I wish more places had envelopes in an assortment of colors. I like to match my envelopes to the color of the cards I put in them, but it would take me a long time to use up even 25 envelopes of the same color.

There was (or still is, I'm not sure) an envelope maker. I bought the Stampin Up one a few years ago and never even took it out of the box!! Just too lazy, I think. LOL

I've got one, and I do make envelopes sometimes. But most of my paper is too heavy weight for making envelopes, and a lot of my papers that are a good weight have too busy a print to make envelopes with (not that that always stops me -- after all, labels work well on those).

I get a lot of envelopes from Amazon. All different colors and sizes. I find the cost very reasonable and the quality is good. The last ones I have purchased have a self seal so no more licking or taping. I found some very dark pine green ones, black, and gold & silver sparkle ones. Quality is very good. Just read the description and look at star review ratings and you should be good to go. And if you have Prime there’s no shipping. I’ve always found red envelopes hard to find and Amazon has several different colors of reds. Check it out to see if there is something for you.

Diana B check on Amazon-they have assortments-you can get a pack of 50 total asst although I saw 100 for 22 so a better deal. Just ask for A2 assorted color envelopes. That might be too little of a color for you though.

They have a huge selection of many kinds, sizes, & colors. The more you purchase, the better the cost. Shipping has always been very timely.
I order mine from Heinrich Envelopes Corp. It is a great value. I only buy the white ones since I donate boxes of cards. I found them way back when I did cards for Operation Write Home and they recommended them.
