It all started with baby peas. Recently, I posted how to create tiny pea pod pendants, and the very next week I found a vintage peas seed packet among my ephemera stash. 
So I went about scanning and modifying it to create a little gift packet to hold the necklace for placing in a gift box. (Feel free to snag the image below for yourself!)
Next thing I know, with little packets on the brain, I’m designing more and more with fun bright graphics. I saved each individual packet image large enough for you to use at any size printable on a letter size sheet. To access the graphics, simply click on an image and drag it into a file. Then place within your open software page and adjust the size(s) to your liking. Here are a dozen fun printable packet designs just for you.
To make your packets, print out and trim along the edges of the graphics.
Fold up the bottom, and in the short side and spread a bit of glue stick adhesive along each. Fold over the large flap and press. Then the top flap folds down to close.
They make great little note card envelopes, pockets for small supplies, party favor holders or gift card wrappers. 
I’ll be using one for my needles and think they would make cute little travel sewing kits.
With a round punch you can cut a semi-circle area for accessing the contents. I used my Martha Stewart scalloped 1″ punch.
Tuck a little loot in one for someone special. (Recognize the jump-rope girl from the growth chart I posted?)
Make one large enough to hold index cards, receipts, coupons and more. 
Wrap little floss cards with Divine Twine for sharing with your creative friends or for projects on the go!
What would you use them for?
Aren't you a princess for sharing these..
I wonder what it would be like to make a small zippered purse out of the pea pod packet, and use the tiny peapod for the zipper pull?
Oh my!!! Darling little things! Thanks for sharing!
Ooooo…thanks for sharing! These will make great gift card (Starbucks!) holders for gifts!
The stuff you create makes me happy…and even more happy that you're willing to share. God Bless all you put your heart and hands to Cathe…
You are so clever and kind. Thanks for sharing!
Those are awesome. I love them all, I think they will make great gift card holders.
I made a knitted bow for my sisters hair it will fit perfect inside this little package and also some mini journals i made too. Perfect
Oh I love these Cathe – you are SO good to us, your adoring followers! I'm going to print some out ASAP!

Hi Cathe! I've been following your blog for over a year now and – while I'm pretty much always amazed at what you come up with – this project has to be hands-down my fave! This is a smack-me-in-the-forehead piece of brilliant simplicity! (I'm also a fan of the decals and cereal box notebooks…) Thank you so, so much for all the great things you put on your blog – I'm so inspired every time I visit!
Oh my, these are such fun little gems!
These are wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing! I love the little peas too, and am going to have to look harder for that elusive green leather…
beautiful boxed, I love the way they fold! thanks for sharing
These are gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing these!
So so cute! thank you for sharing your clever ideas.
These are adorable!! Thank you so much for sharing!
Well I flipped a few months back when you showed us that little pea pod. I've been on the hunt (OK, thinking about going on the hunt) for some green shoes ever since. Now I am going to have to get myself in gear because these little envelopes are calling my name. Thanks! Lisa~
They are adorable gift card holders……in this economy I don't want to spend money on the wrong thing–so this is the perfect way to present a gift card!
Thank you for sharing they are really cute:)kristianne25

What a treasure you are. The envelopes are darling and have so many uses. You are so nice to share such wonderful things.
These are so cute! They'd be perfect for taking yarn or fabric selvedges for matching. So much cuter than a ziploc bag. Thanks!
I can see using these for favors for my daughters wedding. What basic beginners program would you suggest I use to save, size and create these?
Fab idea. Love those. 🙂
Thanks for shareing 🙂

I'm using these to hold your penny necklaces I'm "manning" up a bit and making for my nephews for christmas. Thanks for the great ideas!
Paula in Calgary, Oh Canada!
Cathe…you are such a sweetheart and so giving! These are so precious…I'm going to share them with my niece who is a school teacher and alway looking for a fun way to give things to her students. She is a special ed. teacher in a HS in LA and most of her students are highly functioning and they appreciate all the little details 😉 Thanks a bunch!!!
Fondly, Roberta
These are great and so lovely. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Cathe for more fantastic downloads! I found a green leather coat the other day at the thrift store (made me look like Kermit!)and have already made my first pea pod. The seed packet will be the perfect finishing touch!

Thank you so much for sharing these. I want to print one out for a template to cut them out of Christmas wrapping paper and put a piece of candy and a nice card in them for the ladies in our church group. I was looking for a way to let them know how much I appreciated each one of them. Again, thank you.
Thanks very much for sharing these. perfect for finishing off some presents today! ..
Merry Christmas!!
Hi, Cathe,
I appreciate these patterns as I have been starting a tiny heirloom seed business for children and was at the Willow Glen Farmer’s Market many times last summer in San Jose. I have been trying to sell the seed packets from the various companies that I buy from. I have been selling the seeds for the price on the packet which means I wasn’t making any profit. I had great fun, though, and aim to work toward buying bulk seeds and selling them in my own packet to make a little profit. I have made a nine page catalogue that shows the pictures of the veggies and a write up and the price. I am visiting my daughter now but when I get back to my computer I will send you my catalogue so you can see my style. I love graphics, also, but was a social worker not a designer (although, I was originally an art major). My goal is to design some labels to put on the packets unless there is a better way. I want to set up a website this year. Was it easy to do or did you pay someone to do it?
Well – I hope this isn’t too much info – just wanted to share. I love your packets – and will print them out soon. I will be taking care of my Mom in Sebastopol every other weekend so will think of you when I drive by!!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Janet Tonnelli

Thank you for the gorgeous packets. I have looked all over the internet for exactly that. Altho I found several, none were as nice as yours. Im now able to complete my project thanks to you.

These are the most unique wonderful little packets. I sell jewelry at a flea market and they can hold so many different items – earrings especially! Thanks so very much!!!!!!!!!
I snatch up every seed packet printable I find, (which hasn’t really been that many – about 4-5 over the past few months) but these are exactly what I’ve been looking for! I love them all, and can’t imagine I’ll ever find a need to download anymore in the future (unless of course you go seed packet crazy again, then I probably won’t be able to resist). Thank you so much for sharing your creativity – these will be put to use in so many ways. This is my favorite printable to date, and free to boot, however I’m sure they will become ‘priceless to me. Thanks again!

These are wonderful! Any chance you have these in camouflage? Army? Navy? AF? Marines? 🙂 Thanks for considering.
Thanks! Great idea. 🙂
Wow! These are SOO cute!! These will come in handy for many of my DIY gifts I make…Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks for sharing! I used two of these for seeds. A colleague of mine is moving away and has a big garden with the new house, but there is only grass….. and so I gave her seeds from my garden to start. She loved the idea very much.
This would also be cute reproduced on a shrinky Dink sheet. Then you can hang the reduced seed package with the pea pod, on the pendant. How cute would that be?????
Love these. Ty!!
So many creative ideas…
Thanks for the generous selection of freebies and many greetings from Germany.
