Welcome to this week's paper project! A fun and quick fall card to put together. Remember, the colors and stickers can be changed for any occasion and holiday.
You will need a 4" x 5 1/2" notecard.
Cut a 3 3/4" x 5 1/4" rectangle of scrapbook paper and glue to front of card.
Cut a 3 3/4" x 1 1/2" inch strip of cardstock. Trim the bottom with decorative stickers. Glue to front of card, as shown.
Add decorative dots and dashes with pen.
Open up card and carefully cut a small slit along the seam, 1/4 inch below top of cardstock strip.
Thread length of ribbon through and tie a knot. Trim ends.
Cut a 2" x 3" rectangle of cardstock. Add stickers or stamps. Glue to card, as shown.
Cut a 2" circle from cardstock, using decorative stickers. Cut a scrapbook paper circle slightly smaller and glue to front of cardstock.
Glue to card, as shown. Send to a friend!

I just love your designs.Thankyou for sharing.
Such cute things! I just love them!
The cards are so beautiful that they should be framed! I have stared at them over and over again and I just love them. I have to admit that my absolute favorite item of the day are those acorn tags. I love everything about them. Was this a particular stamp for the wording in the background? I love stamps with words (yes, I'm a dork) and the way you layered this one with the acorn...add to that those buttons. I have a thing for buttons. Okay, I'm starting to sound psychotic. LOL.
Love,Love, Love the pumpkin card with the black background..so elegant.
Kelli,
I like all of your card designs, however I absolutely love the acorn tags! They are so neat!
As usual, I'm a day late and a dollar short on my paper crafting. I do have motivation though. Today is my sister's birthday, and I also want to make something special for my nurse manager for "Bosses Day". With a short nap and a burst of inspiration, I may get something done!

I try not to come here and just lavish you with praise. But I just can't help myself today! (lol) These are beautiful! If only you had a little esty shop (did I spell that right?) to sell these creations of yours!!!

Thank you for sharing your cards with us. I've never made a card before, but with your step by step instructions to such a pretty card, I intend to. In fact, I'm going out this morning to get the stuff! :)
Kelli,
Those cards are just beautiful!
I am in love with the Acorn Tags. Your cards and gift tags must make the gift jealous!
Oh, these are so pretty. Thank you for sharing.
Just as usual Kelli, you are magnificent! Love it!
Those acorn tags...drool...the buttons are phenomenal--are they real or printed?
So pretty, Kelli! So is the scalloped circle cut with decorative-edged scissors? I had thought maybe it was a paper punch.
And I am so excited to learn I won last week's give-away! I'll get an e-mail to you right away. Thank you!
I love your little acorn pretty and ribbon. Have a wonderful week!
Very nice. Thx so much for the great ideas.
Your cards are just beautiful.
Of course, I love the acorn tags, too! I'm going to get some things to actually make some of these in the next day or two. Those mini-cards are my favorite. :)
Those turned out really cute. I'm gonna have to steal some of your ideas bc I want to make invites for my family for Thanksgiving. I hope you don't mind.
I love the acorn tags. So cute!
Blessings

Your paper projects are so amazing! They made me feel like my crafty stuff looks like it was done by a second grader!
You create such nice things Kelli. Thanks for sharing!
Love these cards and tags, Kelli! I have fallen in love with mini cards. I also love to alter little notebooks, so hopefully I'll get some pics of those on my blog in the next day or two. Really loving seeing everyone's creations!
Congrats to your two winners this week!
I have always lurked in the background, but finally have to comment that you have one of the most lovely blogs I read. I love looking at your creations and the beautiful things you have in your home.
I made my first cards yesterday - showed a couple of them on my blog - and I love your ideas. It really is a fun hobby...
Kelli,
