Who doesn't love Halloween?! Whether it is celebrated in your country or not, it is a good excuse to send out some creepy (or cute) spooky mail! :)

Step 1: Grab a security envelope, and carefully loosen the gummed sides.

Not sure what a security envelope is? A security envelope has a pattern printed on the inside, which makes it difficult to see the contents. They are used for bills, bank statements, etc.

Step 2: Glue the envelope back together with the security design on the outside.

Step 3: Decorate the envelope with rubber stamped images, collage, or paint, or set it on fire (just kidding). Basically, whatever takes your fancy. (You can also be a rebel and decorate the envelope before you glue it back together...)

Step 4: Include a Halloween-related paper surprise for your partner. It can be a postcard, ephemera, die-cuts, etc. Anything to help them make either more ghoulish mail with or to encourage them to send out more spooky mail. ;)

Step 5: Slap some pretty postage on it and you’re done!
