Here's a quick and easy gift idea -- DIY note cards.
1. Fabric scraps
2. Blank note cards {they frequently go on sale at Hobby Lobby}
3. Double Sided Wonder-Under
4. An iron
5. Sewing machine if you want to do some decorative stitching. There's all kinds of fun ways to customize these!
Cut your fabric to size, iron to one side of the wonder-under, peel the wax paper off then iron to the blank card. You can stitch around the outside if you want for extra character.
I'm giving this set of 6 coordinating cards away to a reader! Just comment on this post what you would do with the cards {connect with an old friend, re-gift for your sisters birthday, whatev} and I'll use a random number generator to pick the winner. To make things easy, you just need to comment once. I'll post the winner one week from today!

Sign me up! Love it, so cute and a great way to get rid of those extra scraps. :)
ReplyDeleteI would use them to keep in touch with friends and family. We always seem to be moving with Andy being in the Navy! Great idea Nicole!
ReplyDeleteI would use these as thank you cards!! Love the colors and designs, too cute!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute idea! I have some friends who would love to get one of these in the mail!
ReplyDeletei love making these! was planning to make some for christmas for my sil's, but i think i'd keep this set all to myself!
ReplyDeleteVery Cute, Nicole! I love it! I am super into Note cards right now because I have started setting aside a little time each week to write encouraging notes to friends, family, and coworkers all over the world and sending them via snail mail-everybody loves snail mail and everybody loves to be encouraged!
ReplyDeleteToo adorable and what a great idea! I would definately use these for my secret sister gifts at our local crisis pregnancy center.

What a great idea! If I won, I'd use them to write thank you notes to people like my mom who help us with laundry during this busy year. :-) You're so fun, Nicole!
ReplyDeleteso fun! since I don't have the means to make them myself, I'd be tempted to keep them...but would probably send them over the ocean for people's special occasions.
ReplyDeleteSo inspired by this craft! I have some fabric scraps laying around, and now I finally have an idea what to do with them. I would send them to my family overseas in Sweden, to show some new ideas of letter making!
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful cards would be perfect for the sweet, heartfelt thank you my children's teachers deserve. One is an art teacher and I feel sure she would find other uses for hers! What wonderfully cheery fabric!
ReplyDeleteMakes me smile :)
I love making cards and playing with fabric what a great mix of the 2 together. These are so very chic boutique...thanks for sharing found you via making the world a cuter place #279
