Recently, I made these postcards to surprise my friends with in the mail for Valentine's Day. It's no secret that real mail is a lost art anymore, am I right or am I right?
I altered a stenciled heart doily in Photoshop to give it a pink mosaic look; I love how the doily looks like a face. It does right, I'm not just seeing things???
*I've been secretly trying to discover new things to make with doilies...I'd really like to make some doily t-shirts like this fabulous one.*
Then, I printed it out at 4"x6" on regular card stock, cut it out with a paper cutter, and rounded the edges. It's a little bigger than standard postcard size, but it works.
Here's the postcard with "Happy Valentine's Day!" and without for your own sweet words. Just click, print, and mail away!
Now that I've finished my simple Valentine's, I've got to get started on the kiddos. I'm so excited because we are using balloons and glitter! I think I've figured out something that a 2.5-year-old can actually participate in! We'll see how they turn out...don't worry, I'll be sure to share them here!

Super cute! And you're so right about the real mail thing. Every once in a while, it's nice to get something that you can actually hold in your hand.
I love this postcard !!
