Naturally, Notes & Envelopes
"Leaf" a good impression with these easy-breezy notes. Create a nature stencil to decorate cards with matching envelopes.
1. Cut a stencil. Use Crayola Twistables® to sketch a design from nature—a flower, animal, or leaf—on the inside of a cereal box. Cut out the middle with Crayola Scissors.
2. Design cards. Fold paper to create a note card. Make sure the stencil fits! Cover your craft area with newspaper. Place the stencil on your note card. Use Crayola Washable Kid’s Paint and a Paint Brush to fill in the design. Air-dry paint.
3. Add details to your note cards with Twistables and MiniStampers.
4. Decorate envelopes. Fold paper (larger than your card) so the bottom section is shorter than the top, leaving a flap. Use a Crayola Glue Stick to seal the sides. Decorate the envelope with your stencil, Twistables, and/or MiniStampers. Air-dry paint.
5. Write your message. Fill your card with good wishes. Place your card in the envelope. Fold the flap down. Glue it closed.
