Materials Needed:
Red card stock - enough for your cards at 2 per card
4 x 6 photos - if you have the time Costco is the least expensive usually, I used CVS and won't again since they messed up the first time
Blank tags
Gold ink
Stamp
Envelopes
Return address labels (optional)
Spray glue
I started by printing off 4 x 6 squares in the center of 22 sheets of red card stock I purchased at Hobby Lobby for $0.29 each. This made it easier to center the photographs I was attaching. I also printed lines along the edges of the paper for where I would be making the cuts (my cards were 5 x 7). This made using a paper cutter much quicker.
I then sprayed the back of each photo (got 50 prints at CVS for $5.50) with glue and attached it to the card in the printed rectangle. Once those were all completed, I then began affixing the blank tags I got for $1 each using the same spray adhesive. I centered those on the top right of our photo. Last, I used my $2.75 Christmas stamp to stamp the words in gold ink (got it for $4.80 with a 40% coupon) onto the tag. Once they were dry, they were ready to go in the envelopes for addressing and mailing.
I think they turned out cute, no? |
