Give Love Cards

I'm a huge fan of getting letters and cards in the mail, especially "just because" correspondence. It's a little something special that shows care and good thoughts, something that adds a little love to a day. And what's better to add to a day than love?

With my recent blue obsession I thought it would be perfect to create give love cards in shades of blue.



Each card is covered with washi tape, a doily, and a mini envelope. The mini envelope holds 3 hearts, giving love :) You can also personalize what's in the envelope with an extra note or special photo.









Have a lovely Thursday!

I love all of the little details that you put into this. And I'm a huge fan of handmade envelopes or at least lined envelopes. I made all of the envelopes for the Save the Dates that we sent out for our wedding. One of the most successful projects that I took on.

Love this idea. And you have a really distinct style that makes these cards really fresh.

This is so cute! The details really make the card. I was thinking of something similar for our wedding invitations, actually.
