transparent covers for cards

Does anyone know where I can buy glassine or vellum type sleeves for a card and envelope? I’m working on getting some things displayed in a shop and I can’t find clear sleeves. I don’t want shiny plastic. I’d prefer something more natural looking but see-through. Any ideas?

If you just want to try out a small amount you could always check out Etsy:

Good Luck and I hope it goes well! Denise

Try these:

I have a box of the 4 3/8” x 5 3/4” (A2) size, so if you want fewer than uline’s box of 1,000 contact me back-channel and we can work something out.

Most folks in the stationery biz order from clearbags.com. For small orders, try their sister site, clearenvelopes.com. Both stock the clear see-thru packaging you see on just about every card out there. Glassine is more like waxed paper (it’s what stamps used to come in!)—it’s translucent, but not exactly transparent.

Natural-looking is not really an option, in my opinion. If you want your cards protected, then plastic is the only way. The biodegradable bags might be up your alley, though: http://www.clearbags.com/bags/eco

Good luck!

Thanks for all the help!

Amazon sells a pack of 100 glassine envelopes for $4.99.
