Are you addicted to laminating? (Aren’t we all!?) Have you ever wondered “How could I laminate an envelope?” If so, this is the post for you! The Technology Tuesday winner this week was “How to Laminate an Envelope!”
This poll was pretty exciting… it had a record 147 votes, and almost half of those votes (46%) were for how to laminate an envelope! Thank you to everyone who stopped by and voted, I really appreciated it! And that you also for your comments on my previous post, How to Print On Sentence Strips. I really enjoy all of your sweet comments!
I have to say, I made a silly mistake today! When I laminated the envelope, I took a picture of it going into the laminator for the tutorial. But of course, I must have forgotten to save the picture because it’s nowhere on my phone! Even being a “techie,” I still make stupid mistakes occasionally!
Without further delay, here it is the tutorial!
I hope you can find some use for these laminated envelopes! I cut up all of my sentence strips into individual words and store them in envelopes. On the envelope, I print the title of whatever poem/game is inside (e.g.: Who Stole the Cookies from the Cookie Jar?), along with a picture of the game. If you’re curious how to print on envelopes, be sure to check out my tutorial here:
Enjoy!
I love stopping by and reading your techy tips:) I have been wanting to create some clip art. Maybe you could got over some simple ideas like how to make a frame:))

I'm still trying to figure out how to do that in a free program! I do mine using a combination of Adobe Illustator and Adobe Photoshop, but they're each $500 programs. When I figure out how to do it in a free program I'll definitely blog about it!
Thanks for sharing! This is something I never even knew I wanted to know :)! But so useful!

No problem! It really is something that once you know, you don't know how you ever lived without it!
Thank you for sharing this tid bit! I saw someone mention they store center activities in laminated envelopes and I was like WHAT? I'm excited to know how to do this now:)

Oooh interesting! I usually use mine for my sentence strips, but center activities is another great idea. I may have to set those up this summer!
Thanks for sharing all your useful tips!

I love these little tips. I shared with my fellow teachers your blog on how to print on sentence strips and everyone loved it – mostly kinder and first. 🙂

I'm glad you and your fellow teachers like them! Some of them (like the sentence strips) are definitely more relevant to some grades than others, but some you can use for anything!
I tried to add your button to my blog so that people could click to you, but I couldn't find it on your page! 🙁 Do you have a button code?

I actually don't! Perhaps I'll have to make one this weekend!
PS: I just stopped by your blog and I love that you're a fellow tech addict!
This works for library card pockets too! Useful tips, thanks!
Very true! Thanks for the tip!!!
