So, anyone else besides me find it hard to find the time to practice our craft?
Hah, silly question huh?
My solution, Envelope spells!
These will be a quick and easy way to “get it done” when we barley have enough time to even eat, drink or go to the bathroom LOL.
I want to share with you the process, you don’t have to have a lot of tools (I do because I’m a scrapbooker, mini album maker and handmade card maker).
I came up with this idea based on @InkedGoddessCreations IG post about Envelope Spells.
I made a list of the most common spells Sunny or I would use throughout the year and yes, I made another spreadsheet 
LOL.
So after cleansing all my supplies I would use and lighting my cleansing candle and anointing myself with manifestation and blessing oil, I put on some of our wonderful Spells8 
music and got to work.
I took each of those spells, time, day, moon info, colors and the ingredients we commonly use. I then took that information from my list and input them into a business card size template in Word (this template can be found on the internet, just search up “Avery Business Card template for Word”).
The common size for business cards in the US is 3 1/2 x 2, perfect little size.
Each page contains 10 cards
Here is what I came up with:
(that’s our sweet street rescue PepperCorn 
, he always sits with me when I am crafting something so I just plop my scoring board over the top of him and he has his own little comfy “cave”)
I printed them on regular copy paper and cut them out.
My next step was to pull colored paper (8 1/2 x 11 US) from my scrapbooking stash for each spell. I figured out the size I would need to make the small envelopes that those slips of paper would fit into and started making the envelopes. You can get 4 out of each piece of paper and I had 2 left over from each set so have extras.
Sorry all of you outside the US, I did not have an A4 sheet of paper to work with to make the measurements.
These are the measurements for scoring and cutting:
Score first, then cut and you will need to end up with these:
Fold up the envelope and only glue the little sides and not all the way up:
And viola, you have a perfect little spell envelope:
Here is what a completed one looks like:
I have a master “business card” set of each one that has each spell info on one side and the spell ingredients on the other so I can easily make more when we run out.
The process is to take the envelope, add the ingredients, seal it with the corresponding color wax seal and it ready to use, easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
Here is what I have completed and am working on getting done:
Some of these will be burned in our outdoor altar cauldron, banishing etc., I think if we already have each of the 4 elements on the altar, we could probably burn all of them there. For example, the wish one, sprinkle a little dirt on it for Earth, sprinkle a little water on it for Water, burn it for Fire and then blow the ashes to the wind for Air. I don’t know will have to think on that for a bit.
So, for those non-paper crafty folks out there, this is a perfect time of year to go and buy Valentine’s. Yep valentine’s, those cheesy ones we buy for our kids to hand out at school, they are inexpensive and small enough to make spell envelopes out of the envelopes that come with them.
There are usually 30- 40 Valentine’s in a box, just use the envelopes which are usually white and we all know white is a universal color for spells.
Just take your spell “card” and tuck it in the valentine envelope even if you have to fold it (towards you for attraction, away from you for banishing).
Oh, and take the valentines themselves and lay them on a co-workers desk or give one to the convenience store clerk, checker at the grocery store, the mail person, or even a random person on the street, it will make their day!
I hope this idea will help you if you decide to make some and that it will work well for you to “save some time” in your busy life.
Ok back to work I go on finishing the rest.
Blessed Be.
(I forgot to say that each spell “card” also has a little chant, blessing etc., some are from here some are our own)
Paper, spreadsheets, craftiness, spells, organization… I am in awe and very inspired.
From one crafty person to another, thank you!
