Welcome to this week's homemade card project! This is a very simple card and you can get a lot of different looks depending on what paper you use.
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.
Glue a strip of ribbon, lace or paper across the front of card, as shown. I used hot glue.
Cut a small circle from scrapbook paper. Cut with decorative scissors, if desired. Glue to middle of strip.
I used a "pop dot" which is a foam adhesive to give it a 3D look.
I also added a little pearl gem. Both of these items can be found in the scrapbook section of Michaels, Hobby Lobby or Walmart.

~More Homemade Cards~
Here are a few more things I've made recently...
Items can be found in my Etsy Shop!
Paper Craft Fun: Post any kind of paper craft (card, bookmark, tag, banner, journal, etc.) on your blog between now and next week and come sign Mr. Linky. Next Thursday, I will draw two of the names and the winners will receive supplies for a homemade card: blank notecard, envelope, and an assortment of scrapbook paper, stickers (or stamped images), and ribbon. Link back here in your post, so that others will know where to join in the fun, too!
Thank you for stopping by!

I know that my craft may not be technically considered paper craft so please don't enter my name in the drawing. Gracen was so pleased with how it looked and wanted to share it on here (she's heard me talk about paper craft Thursday!)
Have a great Thursday!
Kelli, I love it! You do such beautiful work.
Your card is beautiful! I love the little tags too. Very inspiring indeed!
Oh, Kelli, these cards are beautiful! You're good!
Be a sweetie, the scotties look like my Chloe Dawn, altho she is a Schnauzer

They are all beautiful - but I especially like the scotty dog one! :)
That first card is just beautiful! Where do you get your inspiration?
You never stop inspiring me. I am hoping to get the X cut for my birthday and play around with the templates.
Looking forward to seeing more of your creations thankyou for sharing.
I love decorative scissors. Cute scotties!
What did you cut your paper and shapes with?

I just love how the pink pops with a black background. And yes, those scotties are super cute!
Hi Kelli!
I like your card ideas!I have a question for you reguarding cards- My parents just had their 50th Wedding Anniversary and recieved tons of cards -- several are duplicates - for instance 1 particular card they received 27 of it!! My question is I really do not want to glue them in a scrapbook- Is there something neat we could do with the cards to make a special momento of their 50th Wedding Anniversary? If it were your parents cards what would you do? Okay thats 2 questions!!! :o)

Those are so pretty and what great ideas. Love the scottie dogs too.
Hello Kelli,
I have visited your blog on several occasions ~ what a lovely place you have here. There is SO much to see I don't think I'll ever catch up. I could have left a comment on every post I have read as each is filled with great thoughts and ideas.
I hope to be returning often!
Kindly, ldh
Kelli- Your pictures always look so professional. I was wondering what sort of equipment and software you use?

Your cards are always so beautiful! BTW, I left you something at my site. Happy upcoming weekend! Carolyn
Hi Karyl! That is a lot of cards! What about a framed collage or shadow box? Here are a few picture ideas I found:

I would use the cards instead of pictures. Hope this helps!
