I really can’t keep away from Simon Says Stamp’s Brushstroke Messages stamp set. I created a set of Lunch Box Notes for my kiddos using it.

Details

Size:  2.75 x 2.125”

Extra Details:  I began by cutting my cards. Then I stamped the large colored block on each card. I added the sentiments in black ink. For a little interest, I added a heart to each card with a slightly darker color of ink.

The green cards have three shades of green ink and white pigment ink hearts.

Starry Lunch Box Notes

My kiddos have requested notes in their lunch boxed this school year. I decided to make myself a bunch of notes that I can just grab in the morning while packing lunches. I actually enjoyed making these more than I expected. The notes are smaller and faster to make which allows me to use more images at a time.

Size:  2 1/8” by 2 ¾” card

Extra Details: I began this by cutting a piece of blue card stock into 16 pieces. I used some Versa Mark ink and white embossing powder to hear emboss the images and sentiments. I used silver glitter embossing powder for some of the stars and silver embossing powder for others.

I used color pencils to add color to all of the images.
