Description:

I started my love of paper crafts back in the 90s when I went to a craft fair and saw someone doing a demonstration on making cards using rubber stamps. Since then my rubber stamp collection has ebbed & flowed as I dabbled in other forms of paper crafting.

This year, I was I was blessed to find several nice sets of rubber stamps at my local Goodwill store which was sparked my interest in using them again. There is just something relaxing about stamping an image, coloring it and making it into a nice card to share with someone - to brighten their day. [It kind of reminds me of all the adult coloring books on the market these days.] Edited: This card is not for your partner's use. You are to write a letter inside for your partner to read.

Below is what you'll do:

  • Choose 1 (or more) rubber stamps from your collection (at least 1 stamp should be a design that you can color in).
  • Stamp it, color it, and adhere it to a background layer (or layers).
  • Attach it to a folded card.
  • It's optional if you want to stamp a greeting inside the card.
  • Write a note to your partner inside the card.
  • Put your card inside an envelope.
  • Stamp a few images on it (it's optional if you want to color these).
  • Put on proper postage.
  • Send to your partner.

We are supposed to write a mote in the card it's mot for our partner to use?

@sherig47 this is not a card for their use, but rather to make them smile when they open it and see the letter you have written inside just for them.
