Today is the perfect day for me to do paper folding crafts. I needed quiet time and a project that didn't take much preparing and was easy enough that I could let my mind wander and just be for a while. I only had a couple of boxes and zero notecards left, so good thing I am this tired today.
I got out my stash of paper which needs to be used as well and started folding small gift boxes. Sometimes the design is that of the paper I used, and sometimes I use rubber stamps for the design.
These are not real sturdy however they work well for light things.
I find them a fun presentation knowing that they were handmade.
A few ideas to put inside -- earrings made by you or purchased, a small bag of dried herbs from your garden, a purchased gift certificate or a personal one you made for your someone special......
Then it was on to all inclusive notecards.. Another simple matter fo folding with fun papers.
This particular one folds so that there is a small corner that comes over the top at the end of the folding right where the postage stamp goes. Placing your stamp there keeps the notecard closed to mail.
This type folds so that there is a pouch where the last corner goes into. I tape this down if sending in the mail.
I'm excited to be ahead in small gift boxes for special occasions and the holidays fast approaching and having notecards at the ready.
