I found the letter contents online with a quick search and added in the Hogwarts logo and words at the bottom. I did glue two pieces of paper together and it sort of made it look more wrinkled and parchment like. Here is a back view of the envelope with the letter.
I folded the envelope by using the letter folded in half as the guide. I did put on my address because I'm a dork and I wanted it as authentic as possible. If you wish to use the font I did, just do a quick Harry Potter Fonts search and you will find plenty. I even found some I used to have, but didn't anymore because of a computer meltdown from last year.
I have to say making the seal was fun. I found a picture of the seal online and made it small enough to fit my American Girl doll. I glued it onto a thin piece of foam and cut it out. I figured it would be the closest to feeling like wax. I think it turned out pretty neato.
I hope to one day make a template for you to use as well, but right now I'm not really that skilled in the PDF making department. I hope too soon though. If you have any questions about the process just leave a comment and I will answer as soon as I can.
Have a wonderful day!
