HELLO LAST MINUTE VALENTINE CARDS!
I set reminders for myself in my calendars and day timers and all those places, and I still leave it until the last possible second. But that's cool. Cause that's my jam and I know it.
Also, I might have a few crafts supplies at home or whatever.
Check it out!
SUPPLIES USED
- Hand carved stamps
- Archival stamping ink, black
- Assorted washi tape (hearts! crowns! llamas!)
- Neon Sharpies
- Old paper bags...
So! I didn't have enough envelopes to go with the cards, but that has never stopped me. What I do have is a collection of every single paper bag I have ever received from Treasured Memories and a sewing machine/
Enter handmade envelopes!
Cut paper bag. Stitch 3 out of 4 edges. Insert card. Tape the last edge. Easy peasy.
Lucas came to watch me finish up and got really excited when he saw my stamps! He asked if I was carving again, and I said no. And he told me: "Y'know, stamp carving isn't just for 100 day project. You should carve more stamps."
Damn straight Buddy. Why are you so smart?
