St. Patrick's Day card kits


 My sister owns a daycare and is always looking for activities for the kids do to.  I had offered to make card kits for her and we connected at Christmas where she handed over a box of supplies - cardstock, decorative papers and envelopes.  She would be happy to take whatever I could make with them.  Yesterday I decided to see about making a few card kits as I had missed Valentines!!  I made 23 card kits for St. Patrick's Day.  I die cut three white hearts and then die cut three smaller green hearts from various decorative papers from my stash.  I trimmed out green cards to fit loosely inside the envelopes.  I made up some instructions for the daycare workers along with how many kits there are and have provided this sample.  The process is to glue the green ones to the white ones, glue the three to the front of the card after placing them where you are happy with them then drawing in stem with a green marker.  They could then be embellished with glitter glue, sequins, stickers or any other embellishment they might have on hand.
