Handcraft something from the heart for your sweetie.
Artists Cara Anderson and Kenny Andreozzi are in love and are very crafty, so who better to help you make a special, unique gift for your sweetie this Valentine's Day?
Here's something you can do for around $10, with all supplies procured at the Gardiner Lane Shopping Center on Bardstown Road.
Supplies:
* Rubber eraser (99 cents at Preston Arts Center)
* X-Acto Knife ($1.99 at Preston Arts)
* Card stock ($1.50 forlarge sheet at Preston Arts)
* Red ink pad ($4.49 at Staples)
Instructions:
1) Draw your design on the eraser - the simpler the better. Make sure to draw letters backward!
2) Carve the design into the stamp using the knife to remove the negative space around your design.
3) Ink your finished stamp on the ink pad and stamp away.
4) Use your stamp to make a Valentine for your best guy or gal.
You can make as many stamps as there are sides to your eraser - up to six!
