I’m thinking pink and I’m thinking plaid on this lovely Friday. So, I originally thought I’d try my hand at making my own pink plaid pattern and sharing it with you on Silhouette Studio. After searching the web for inspiration, I came across this awesome, nifty, free tool called PlaidMaker. Why reinvent the wheel when you already have this awesome tool at your finger tips, right? With PlaidMaker’s help, these DIY Pink Plaid Envelopes were so easy to make. I feel like I’ve struck gold! Want to make your own?

  1. Such cute envelopes, if I had someone special to write I would have chosen this envelope or the grid ones to enclose them. Oh! and the plaid maker never heard of it before. Looks like I might have to check it out!

    Have a great weekend:)
