Directions:
- First things first – if you need to make your cardstock card, do that first. I highly suggest having a second piece of write paper on your card.
- Next grab your red ink pad and have the baby wipes ready.
- Fresh your thumb or index finger on the ink pad.
- Make several red prints on a piece of white cardstock. You want them in pairs, next to each other.
- When done with the ink, use the baby wipes to clean your finger {I also suggest a quick trip to the sink!}
- Next – use the green Sharpie marker to draw on embellishments to give them the look of cherries.
- To finish off the card, write a message like “you are the sweetest!” or “sweet wishes your way!” to the front, to tie it all together.
- Then mail away for the lucky receiver to enjoy it!
