Origami Envelope

You will only need an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper.

Write a letter to someone. Turn the paper over so that the writing is face up on the desk.

Fold the paper in half lengthwise so that corners 1&2 and 3&4 are touching.

Unfold the paper and fold all four corners towards the center.

Fold side A into the center crease.

Fold Side C into the center crease. It should look like the picture after this step is complete.

Fold the pointed ends towards the center. After this step, the paper should be shaped like a rectangle.

Turn the paper over so the "heart side" (or the "flat" side) is facing up.

Fold side D towards the center. The end result of this step should look like the second picture.

Fold Side A over side D.

Tuck the corners of side A into the corners or "pockets" of Side D.
