...Birthday Thank You's...


...this is Scout's sketch for his Birthday Thank You Cards...I love it...a lot...

...I scanned it in order to print multiple copies for his cards...but our printer wouldn't print on the cards without jamming...arghh...

...not (ever) to be deterred in my purpose though...I fashioned a carrier of sorts by simply taping each card to a sheet of 8.5 x 11 paper...I ran it through multiple times - so the carrier is looking a bit ragged at this point...it was not too bad for the dozen cards that we needed but I'd probably print any more than that on standard card stock and then cut them to size...

...then we centered and glued each print on a piece of blue paper...

...added a piece of white for writing the thank you part on the inside...

...and we put the rest together 'assembly line' style...

...they're all done and on their way now...with Scout's heart felt thanks for all the birthday goodness...
