The poor man's letterpress -
I saw it here - and immediately put this on my Christmas wish list. So glad I did 'cause now I can make my personalized thank you note cards. It's kind of an inch-by-inch thank you note card. Very simple, a little crude, very me!
Start with nine - one inch fabric squares - dot back of each with a dollop of glue (I used the cheap-0 glue stick) and place on a piece of card stock. For ease in sewing, I cut the card stock in half. Oh, and the inchies are glued, then sewn, to the right 1/4 of the page. Then, I used my new letter press toy to press on "thank you" in the open space between the inchies. I intentionally placed the inchies asymmetrically to leave space for "thank you." Fold the card in half and it's now ready for my personal note to gifters. Fun!
FYI - sANTA says he found my newest toy at Hobby Lobby.
Mary, I love it! Did you find it among the scrapbooking supplies in Hobby Lobby?
ReplyDeleteYour cards are wonderful. I love the stitching path you used to attach the inchies.
