I LOVE making envelopes! I have created my OWN PATTERN FROM SCRATCH! Though, I will admit--I did NOT invent the actual envelope. So maybe I'm infringing on copyright there...
I have two free patterns for you that you can download from 4shared. They are just two different sizes of envelopes, in a Photoshop document so that the layers are retained. There is one layer, which is the lines of the box, and a second layer which is the background or "shape" of the box. It looks like this:
Here is the download--it's a zipfile for both sizes of envelopes, as well as some free samples you can cut and print.

2. Note the two layers on the side: The green Envelope layer is what you will use to design and change your envelope. The Lines layer is to keep the lines visible so when you print, you can see where to fold.
3. Pull in the paper you would like to use as your background paper.
Then, on the layers tab, CTRL+Click on the GREEN ENVELOPE layer. You will see the marching ants as pictured. THEN, click on the paper layer that you brought in.
Do CTRL+C and then CTRL+V. You have now created a new layer--it is your paper in the shape of the green background layer.

5. When you are finished, print your paper. One think I love about envelopes is that, unlike paper boxes, you don't really need to print it on thicker nicer paper. Regular paper does just fine. I actually prefer it on regular paper.
6. Then just fold it on the lines. Fold it as exactly as you can--it won't sit right if you don't.

All done! So simple and SO CUTE!
