A protective packaging system that will house a fragile object during transport or mailing without using bulky packaging materials. The package is essentially flat and conforms in overall dimensions to a standard mailing envelope while providing heightened protection for the object contained therein. The protective packaging system includes an envelope and a receptacle received within the envelope for the transport of generally thin, flat, flexible, yet fragile goods. In accordance with a presently preferred embodiment, the protective packaging system is designed to safely transport medical test specimens such as dried blood spots (DBSs) or other dried bodily fluids borne by a test card constructed as a flexible substrate. The envelope and receptacle combination are flexible enough to pass through the automated equipment of the United States Postal Service (or other carrier service) yet rigid enough to withstand the handling encountered in the mails so as to avoid damage to the package's contents. The receptacle includes structure for facilitating insert on of an object into the receptacle as well as structure for covering and protecting predetermined areas of the object.
