This may take a little planning and determination. But I suggest you let some loved ones know you are thinking of them by sending them a hand printed card.
If you are a gelatin printmaker, then I am sure that you have pile of prints that could be cut and cropped into a few cards.
Things you will need:
- addresses for your family and friends
- envelopes
- stamps
- pile of prints
- scissors
- glue
I often like to make a viewfinder to help me crop my prints into a pleasing design. It is easy to make a viewfinder. Cut a hole in a manilla file folder the size you want to cut your print down to.
Then trace inside the viewfinder and trim your print.
Glue the print to card stock and sign.
I love to use fun and pretty stamps.
Hope you enjoy this process.
