Send Me a Postcard

Hi Friends!

I'm always looking for an easy way to do something so I came up with a simple gift for a friend using Adornit's mini coloring books.

I remembered that I had an old Unity Stamp Co postcard stamp so I gathered that, the mini book called Hello Friend, and some Adornit patterned paper and alpha stickers.



1. I stamped on the back of each page of the mini book (while the pages were still attached in the book).



2. I cut two 4" x 6" panels of patterned paper.



3. I added letter stickers to each panel. One would serve as the front cover and one as the back.



4. I pre-marked where the holes on the book cover would fall on the patterned panels and punched those holes out. Then I adhered the covers and added a little gingham ribbon through the hole. The book is now ready to be wrapped as a gift. Here's the finished front.



5. And here's the back.



Hope this gives you ideas and that you have a crafty day!
