Make Your Own Stationary

The handwritten note is still alive.  Make your stationary more personal with a work of art that you have created.  If you have children, this is a great idea to do with their works of art!


Take a photograph of your painting. Load the image onto your computer and edit the photo to be exactly what you would like printed on the card. Put onto a flash drive and take to a store that has printing services. At the store ask to print four, 3" x 5" pictures on a piece of white card stock. One piece of card stock will make four images which will be four cards. Craft stores have 4 ½" x 5" blank colored cards and envelopes. Use glue dots (something you can also get at the craft store) to mount the images to the cards. Put 6-8 cards and envelopes in a clear bag with a ribbon around the top and give as gifts or just enjoy them yourself.  


 

Pictured are three of Danielle's cards.  She sells her work at The Charmed Life next to Hobby Lobby in Brannon Crossing, Nicholasville, KY.
 You can also purchase her work directly from her. Contact ElePaints@gmail.com for more information.
