I’m going to use the below Mini-Envelope Template from Kelleigh Ratzlaff and the Lottie Dottie Add on freebie kit by Pamela Donnis:

Here’s what my scrapped envelope looks like:

1. Print on a piece of cardstock. On mine I chose a different paper that was the same size as the template and printed it on the on the opposite side.  Remember, if you want your colors to look brighter to adjust the contrast.
2. Cut envelope out and sponged ink around the outside and inside & score lines.
3. Grab your 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 piece of vellum and put a small strip of double sided sticky tape along both sides and bottom of the inside of the envelope.
4. Cut or punch out shapes for your thread, buttons and pins and needles.
5. Apply velcro to inside top flap and outside bottom flap of envelope.
6. Place all the sewing goodies inside

Here’s a finished picture of the outside of the envelope:
