Folders
I looked at the blog pages below and found these photos particularly useful.

The above photo shows how, rather than having a fold that overlays the image and looks out of place or awkward, if you have a background image printed onto the fold it fits in a lot more discretely.
In contrast to this, having a bright and obvious fold can be quite iconic, especially against a more plain background.
Having a fold that's big enough to have utility in itself opens up more options, such as having space to put a business card and/or an envelope.
Having a method of closing, locking or folding the folder in a skeuomorphic way makes it look like more relevant and appropriate, as well as making it look a bit cleverer.
Having some transparency in the folder makes it relevant because whatever the content of the folder is becomes part of the design. Envelopes
I looked at envelope templates and envelope designs on www.creativebloq.com on the below links, with the below photos being particularly relevant.

Having an interesting closing or opening mechanism makes the envelope more bespoke, which can leave a better impression on people than a regular envelope. If this can have some element of skeuomorphism or relevance to the concept this improves it even further.
