Everyone enjoys receiving “real” mail. Even better is the wonderful surprise of receiving a handmade card to treasure. We will make simple cards with leaf prints, as well as more intricate cards with interesting folds. Making cards is a great way to relax, offers a straightforward creative outlet, and produces beautiful items to share with friends and family. 

 

Materials: Cutting knife, stylus (for scoring), sharp pencils, a good eraser (Pink Pearl is good), glue (UHU glue stick or PVA & brush or very small roller), 12” ruler, scissors. 

Optional/recommended: 12” centering ruler, bench hook with cutting mat (9” x 12” cutting mat size is ideal), bone folder. 

 

Materials will be provided to create the cards and make envelopes for them.
