Cereal Box Postcards

A couple of months ago, in Family Fun Magazine I read about using small cereal boxes as postcards. I thought it was a cute idea, but shelved it because we NEVER get those little boxes.
Lo and behold our camping trip came along and we "needed" a variety of cereal for all our camping buddies!
To make the postcards...

The address and a short message fit snugly on the back.
Any kiddo will be tickled pink to receive such a fun postcard.
We sent the first 2 postcards we made to the precious kiddos we sponsor in Africa through Compassion.
AND we have a growing stack at home. Who knows, you might have a surprise in your mailbox...

PS
Postage for postcards is $0.28!!






Don't forget about our Remember High School Carnival on August 18th! Details here.
