How to send a HUG

 

With all the craft things I make, I have nothing to enclose in a letter to send to my friends and relatives to show them what I do. So I set to work and came up with this lightweight idea that is only 4 inches in diameter and fits nicely into an envelope.

Instructions

  • I took a clear margerine top and measured its dimensions with the rim cut off.
  • In a graphics program I wrote down the text to fit the size of the lid and printed it out.
  • I placed the lid over the text and traced it with a thin tipped black marker.
  • Punched a small hole in the top.
  • Painted the backside of the lid with whatever came to my mind.
  • Traced the word "HUG" with fabric paint and added other dimensional effects.
  • Finally I varnished the front and back

This last image came about because I found it quite difficult to craft the item. So I sat down at the computer and created one with a graphics program. I use that one for my IE Outlook Express stationery.
