When addressing a side flapped envelope the side flap should be to to the right - regardless as to whether the person is addressing the envelope is left or right handed. So the postage stamp is on the same side as the opening flap.

Incorrect. I was taught 40 years ago that the flap should be on the left - I presume so that opening the envelope would not disturb the stamp or postmark.

How did you use to put a card in the envelope?

With the front of the card facing the outside flap. This way, they see the card immediately upon opening the envelope, and also so the postal scanner won't dent the "good" side of the card. Also, if the card has any money inside it, you may want to put the side that opens up towards the top of the envelope so when you take it out the money comes with it. If you put it the other way round there may be cases when you do not take the money out and naturally you throw away the envelope not realizing the cash inside it!

How do you open Disney princess lenticular puzzle boxes?

Flip the side of the puzzle box so the flap that has the bar code is facing you. Take a box cutter and carefully cut across the bottom of the flap then cut each side of the flap and the box side will now flip up, revealing a thick cardboard flap with a half cut in it. Pull it open and you will find the puzzle pieces in a bag. Be sure to store the puzzle on its side, standing upright, cut flap facing up. Hope this helps. :)
