So I’ve been getting back into crafting lately. I know, I always say that.
But seriously. I had an epic weekend of crafting.
One of my best friends is getting married this fall – and nothing is better to give at a wedding shower than stationary customized to the bride’s new last name. Sweet, right?
(Not to mention it helped me clean up at bridal shower bingo, I rocked the “homemade” category…competitive? me? never…)
So instead of my normal celery-stamps that I am known for, I decided to bust out the inkadinkado again. While the name is epically laughable, it does create some pretty sweet stuff.
I used 12 x 12 paper and sliced it into 4 x 5.5 notecards. These fit easily into 4.375 x 5.75 (A3) envelopes. I couldn’t decide whether to cut the paper first or stamp first, so I went with slicing the paper. This also gives you a bit more control over how the stamp is placed on the card.
And I stamped the envelopes too, because who doesn’t want to get a fancy envelope in the mail?
My favorite crafts are always the ones I make for people I love – and this was no exception. Can’t wait to toast the new Mr. and Mrs. S in the fall!
