All You Need Is Love

love stationary

Using my spooky prints tutorial and Martha’s business card holder pattern, I’ve made a stationery kit to spread the love the remaining months of the year. And I’ve given it away.

This stationery kit comes with a leather pouch [7″ x 5 1/4″] with three heart cards, three “love” cards and six matching envelopes.

The pouch was made by cutting out leather from an old jacket & fusing it to polka dot fabric using ultrahold Heat ‘n Bond. I did a satin stitch around the edges for a more finished look.

      Wow! You have outdone yourself yet again Melissa! Maybe these will help me write cute notes for Britton like Chris seems to do for you.
      Also, congrats on the v-day craft contest!

      I found you through craftzine, because your tiddlywinks are awesome.

      I was looking through your old posts, and you are just so cool.

      I think I got a bit of a crush on your husband too, when I saw the Valentine’s cards he made.

      My favorite was the one that said “you are at least as attractive as her.” It made me laugh.

      I guess that might make me mean spirited.

      But, if it helps, I kind of looked a little like her in middle school.

      I got a rock for Valentine’s Day so I’m hoping to win this stationary set and write my husband a note after I take his credit card and go buy myself a purse. I think the awesomeness of the card will take away the sting when he gets the bill.

      Michelle,

      I LOVE that you’re going to hijack your husband’s credit card. He deserves it, especially after giving you a rock for the oh so sacred V-day.

    28. Melissa says:

      Laurie,

      The pouch I made from an old leather jacket, heat ‘n bond, and some polka dot fabric, all zigzag stitched together. It’s basically just like the poopy clutch.

      I was very surprised at how well my machine zigzagged the leather. I thought it was going to be harder than it ended up being.

    29. Jenny says:

      I live in AZ, but I would love to win these! All your stuff is so cute and creative.

      Thanks to Jenn, I found your lovely website! I love all the things you make!

    36. You really organize it non-standard like so gentle with your appearance but I find this keynote to be in truth something that I think I would at no time understand. It seems too complicated and pure unfocused for me. I am looking aid pro your next post, I’ll make an effort to become involved in the hang of it!
