Can they all use the same technique but be different? Example, all be alcohol ink but different colors?

@Babsmomof5 Sure you can use the same technique on the papers using different colors will make them different!

If you ever repeat this, I'd like to request that the paper size be a bit smaller, so they could fit in a regular 1-stamp envelope. Maybe 4x5 or something like that. :)

@TC .. Here is a postal rates sheet.... a 6x9 envelope is the same as mailing a 4 x 6 envelope.....it just depends on the weight. I would think these papers should mail easily for .70 (2 oz.) CLICK HERE

I personally prefer the larger size. Anything smaller would really limit what you could do with them!

I have found that a 6x9 envie won't hold a 6x9 paper, so mine will be just a skosh smaller. If that's not okay, let me know and I will use a bigger envie.

You are right @grammag We will need to make them a tiny bit smaller than 6x9 to fit the envelope (approx. 5.5 x 8.5")....I should have mentioned that....thanks for the reminder!
