Crafty stuff with paper napkins and old CDs.
My clever friend Val is always finding something new and interesting to make. She covered a CD with a napkin, wrote a message on the back, put it into an origami envelope and posted it to me. I just had to learn how it was all done! Take an old CD or DVD.
Find a pretty paper napkin. (I buy packets of them at $2 shops, and have a box full to choose from)
This is the one Val made for me. Separate the napkin layers and use only the top printed layer. Glue it on to one side of the CD. Val crushed hers for this effect, and then rubbed gold paint lightly over it.
Glue plain paper or tissue paper to the other side of the CD and write your message.
Make up an envelope using four paper circles...I'm not going to give lessons here!!
Here are my first three. They all have destinations!

They are very cute, Gina ... Val is one clever cookie.
Sorry I haven't been in touch, I know you have been through a very tough time.
Hoping we can catch up sometime soon.
Love and hugs,
