For Emma’s thank you cards this year, first she wrote the words “Thank You” on small pieces of cardstock.
Then we folded smaller pieces of cardstock in half (I learned that, for a clean cardstock fold, you fold in the direction the paper bends most easily.) Emma drew a snail inside each card. Something to do with the tiger invitations, perhaps?
Emma was super excited to use Glue Dots to attach each “Thank You” card to the outside. She asked me to do most of the writing on the inside, but signed her name at the bottom of each card.

We love making thank you notes here. I love how you collaged on the handwritten thank you on the front. When my two start writing I will be copying that idea for sure!
