To make the kit I cut and folded blank cards, cut colored cardstock and scrapbook paper. I gathered envelope, stickers, glitter pens scissors and glue sticks. I found a nice size plastic container to fit it all into and then I cut out vinyl to decorate the top. One of the envelopes I included had a stamp and my address already written on it so that she could make me a card and send it.
I included a letter explaining that card making is my favorite craft and wanted to share it with her. I told her that I made the kit just for her so she could see if she thought it was a fun craft to do.

What a great idea!! It looks like she is really going to enjoy making cards too. How awesome will it be to get a card from her?
You are an amazing Grandma!
What a great idea! I was thinking of making myself a little pouch of things to take when we travel. I love to have something to do on a rainy day or a day I'm too tired to do anything else!
What a fabulous idea. I can see that she loved it. You included so many things. Way to go!
I love it . . . not only is it a sweet and thoughtful gift, but a way of sharing your interests with her. She's always going to think of you when she's making cards or when she receives a handmade one in the mail.
OMG! It's PERFECT! I'm so glad you found a way to connect to her...just the two of you. :)
She must love this. What a great idea! She is very lucky to have you as a grandma.
What a good idea :)
All the best Jan
I bet you just planted a seed that she will remember forever!
What a wonderful idea!
