My mom also makes cards but is struggling a little with fatigue as she goes through chemo. Iâm making her a box of card ingredientsâbackgrounds, stamped images, die cuts, etc that will be easy for her to put together.
I had several packs of blank light brown label stickers from Dollar Tree in my stash. Was pleasantly surprised to open and find that there were two sheet of labels in each pack. I cut the label sheets apart so that there were two, three, or four of similar size on a piece, then put the piece in my MISTI and arranged sentiments that it the label shape on top, used the lid to grab hem and then inked them up and stamped them. With several of the same labels, I was able to make 2-3 similar sheets for the various shapes, leave the stamps in place, clean, and stamp again with different color inks so there would be a nice variety of shapes, sayings, and colors. Now my mom can just peel off the labels and stick them to a card front covered with some pretty background paper, add a bow or some bling and have a nic quick card!
I will have to look around Dollar Tree for some more of the stickers so I can make a batch for myself as well.
Hope someone finds this idea useful!
