Lunchbox Notes with Ink 'n' Stamp Sets

Hero Arts Ink 'n' Stamp tubs are perfect for creating quick and cute lunchbox notes for the kiddos in your life. The tub contains 18 woodblock stamps and a black ink cube. The only other supplies you need to create these mini cards is some colored cardstock and markers!

I cut some panels of Dove White cardstock measuring 3" square and randomly stamped the backgrounds with Intense Black ink. The solid images are great for really quick cards and the outline images allow you to add some coloring with markers or colored pencils. You could even get siblings to help with the coloring!

The the four Ink 'n' Stamp sets I used are:

These notes are also perfect for sticking into backpacks along with an encouraging note on a day they might have a big test.

I mounted the stamped panel to a 3.25" square piece of colored cardstock and stamped a message on the same color. And there is no need to create a folded card -- you can just write your message on the back of the card panel!

I will often get little drawings or handwritten notes left on my computer desk from my kids and they totally make my day. I think we often forget how a simple handwritten note can brighten someone's day!
