Homemade Christmas Card ~ Paper Crafting Thursday!

The winners of last week's paper crafting are Shelley and Chestnut Hollow. Please email me your addresses and I'll get your prizes in the mail!


Welcome to this week's paper project! Most of us are probably busy with Christmas preparations, so this is a simple card...you only need scrapbook paper and ribbon!




Another version.


You will need a blank 5 1/2" x 4" notecard.


Cover with a 5 1/4" x 3 3/4" piece of scrapbook paper.


Cut a 4" x 1" strip of matching paper.


Along with three small circles of scrapbook paper. The size will depend on the pattern.


Glue to paper strip, as shown.


Cut a small slit at both ends of strip.


Thread a length of ribbon (I forgot to measure, but enough to wrap around card and make a bow) through slits.


Position strip on the front of card and wrap ribbon around card (through the middle). Glue strip in place.


Tie a bow and send to a friend!
