Today in Crafting: Mini Christmas Cards

Today, we’re featuring these mini Christmas cards:

These were made with cloth, glitter glue, and small pieces of card stock. The envelopes are thick paper held together with tape (the red star can be used as decoration and/or to hold the envelope closed). Email us at appleofmyoddeye@gmail.com if you’d like to order some. They’re small enough to fit in your palm but big enough to wish someone a happy holiday! You can also find us at the Strange and Astounding Show next Saturday and Sunday (November 29 and 30) in Oshawa.

With the holiday season approaching, we’ve been working on some seasonal art, ornaments, cards, and jewellery for our upcoming shows.

We figured out to make tiny envelopes with a very simple and adaptable pattern (click and flip through to see the steps):

We’ll be at the Strange and Astounding Show on November 29 and 30 in Oshawa and the Bazaar of the Bizarre: Frostbite Edition 2014 on December 14. If you can’t catch us there and a piece you like isn’t listed on our Etsy, email us at appleofmyoddeye@gmail.com. Even if the piece you want has sold, we do custom orders.
