Altered Thank You Notes
|

I’m in the process of writing out thank you notes from the gifts we received for our wedding, and they seem boring to me. I picked out pretty cards, but they’re plain. So, I’m going to alter them. I have a wedding cake rubber stamp, and some other “wedding type” embellishments I’m going to use on them. I’m going to ask my children for help with this project, too, and turn a task into a creative moment.
Here are a few of the things I’m going to do to alter them:
- Use a corner punch
- Stamp a floral image on the front of each card
- Stamp the wedding cake image on the interior of the card
- Add wedding themed stickers to the front and interior of the card
- Color in the wedding cake image on the interior of the card
- Add a floral image to the envelope’s flap
- Use glitter gel pen for all the text
I’m excited about working on this project now. The problem? My art space is a MESS, so I’m hoping it won’t be too difficult to find my rubber stamps! I already have the cards, the punch, the ink, and the wedding stamp set aside . . . finding the rest of my goodies will take a little more effort. I’ll employ the help of my little treasure hunters for that part of the project, too!
