Envelopes for spinner cards?

[kehfrog]

I've made a bunch of spinner cards thanks to the directions posted here, but now that I want to send one, I'm afraid to put it in a traditional card envelope. Will the envelope crush the pop-dots I used? :?

Thanks! Karen

I'm having the same trouble - I can't squeeze the spinner cards into the envelopes I normally use without risking it getting crushed and/or ruined. Any advice from anyone?????

I cheated when I sent my nieces. I put it in a large cello bag, cut off the top, and sealed it with double sided sticky tape. It was in a package and worked well.

I've sent mine in the clear envelopes and I haven't been told that anyone had a problem with it spinning.

Same here! So far so good with clear envies! I've also sent in the regular envies and those worked, too!

I put a piece of bubblewrap in with the card on the spinner side. It costs and additional .12 but at least I know it's not going to get crushes.

I'm making my spinner cards the same size as normal cards (5 1/2 by 4 1/4) and I'm having trouble actually fitting the spinner card into a normal envelope - I've gotta shove it in!

I bought a bunch of bigger envelopes at the craft shop to use for these. I haven't tried to mail any, but they work well for the ones I have given out.

They are about 5.5 by 7.5, much like Hallmark card size!

Here you go:

The directions are there. One note, it's 1/2 inch, not 1/4, for the slit.
