How to Insert a Card or Letter into an Envelope

Insert a card or letter into an envelope so that when it's removed, the writing is right side up and ready to be read. When inserting a card that's folded along the side, the fold should be on the bottom of the envelope. When inserting a letter that's folded in thirds, always fold up the bottom first, then fold the top over it and insert right side up.
