Crafty! - Bubble Envelopes

Just finished playing around a little with a new craft idea for decorating boring white envelopes.

From Crafts


Shown in order of creation. The light one was too light, the dark one was too dark and the last one was juuuust right. Will experiment more.

These envelopes are made by basically mixing some soap, sugar, water and food coloring together then blowing bubbles in a cup. When the bubbles rise above the brim you just tap the envelope lightly on them and voila! Bubble texture! I only had one color so I was somewhat limited so I hope to try it out with other colors sometime too. Here's the official recipe:

1 tsp dish soap
1 tsp sugar
1/2 cup water
About 10 drops of food coloring

mix together till sugar is dissolved, stick straw in cup and blow! Once the envelope is dry you can do other colors too. This also works for making bubble stationary as well.

Yay crafts!

Well I finally went and did it, I made my Deviant Art page.
Just old stuff on there for now but I swear I'm going to put some new stuff up soon. :)

Book Signing!

Oh this is exciting news, Postsecret will be doing a book signing on November 20th at Books Inc. in San Francisco! I would really like to attend it, then I could buy the newest book. I find the idea of a book signing sort of strange, however, since no one from Postsecret actually wrote the book, the just collected the cards and displayed them. Hmmm.. ;)
