Post-It Notes, Hot Cocoa, and a TeaBag….Really?

 

What do post-it notes, a teabag, and an individual packet of hot cocoa mix have in common?
 
Well, they can be tucked inside a handmade greeting card!

I used stamps from Darcie’s for this fun card! I love the polka dot ribbon!

I stamped the greeting on a small stack of post-it notes that can be removed.

 

Sending a get well card with a tea bag or small pack of Kleenex inside will let your friend or family member know you are thinking of them and wish they will feel better soon.

I stamped the robe on patterned paper, hand cut it, and applied it over the cute little girl.

A teabag in this card is sure to make anyone feel better!

 

The added surprise of a package of hot cocoa would also make a young child be excited when they open up their birthday card! What little kid (or big kid) doesn’t love a hot cup of cocoa? Or, you could include a flat fruit snack, gum, or bookmark. (When I teach first and second grade, the students love to use their bookmarks!)

A little boy or girl would love to receive this fun card with a special surprise inside!

A packet of hot chocolate inside this birthday card is another surprise!

 

Everyone loves to receive something special in their mailbox. Mailing a gift package can be costly, but sending a card with a little something extra tucked inside will certainly bring a smile to the person receiving it. It can be a gift in itself!

Polka dots make this birthday card fun, plus there is a surprise inside!

What gal wouldn’t love to receive a gift card to shop for her birthday?

 

Sending a thank you card is something we should always do. (If you don’t, you should!) Imagine finding a special card in your mailbox from someone thanking you for something you did for them. It is easy to make a pocket card like this Thank You card. Click here to see how I made this card.

I love this cute teacup and teabag with yellow paper!

A teabag in this thank you card is perfect!

Why wait for a birthday or special occasion to send a card to someone? Surprise them by sending them a ‘Thinking of You’ or a note card when they least expect it. It will make you feel better and they will certainly appreciate it. What a wonderful way to keep in touch and let someone know your gratitude for having them in your life. Even if you see someone frequently, they would love to find a card with a stamp and their name on an envelope when they sort through the junk mail in their home mailbox. You know they will open the card first!

When you send a friend a note card to let them know you are thinking of them, include a bookmark or a teabag or a small post-it notes stack. How many people can say they received those in the mail?

What would you tuck into a card?

Enjoy your Creative Day!
