I have an 18 month old granddaughter who lives far away from Michigan in Phoenix. We maintain contact through daily facetiming and visits as often as we can, but I am always trying to think of ways to strengthen our bond. Lauren recently got a playhouse which has a mail slot. I thought of the perfect way to stay in touch by mailing her Alphabet Postcards.
I made the cards from Watercolor paper cut to a 4 x 6 size. I kept them simple by writing the Capital and small letters and adding a picture associated with that letter. I wanted to make sure these would make it through the post office and be protected in case they got wet. I seal each card with a coat of Crystal Kote Gloss Varnish. This spray which dries clear will protect them from dirt and moisture.
Lauren enjoys receiving this mail from Grandma!
It is important to seal your projects and I highly recommend Helmar Crystal Kote Varnish!
