Homemade Cards ~ Paper Crafting Thursday!

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


This week's card project is very simple and is perfect for large patterned scrapbook paper.


You will need:
-Blank 6 1/2" x 5" notecard
-6 1/4" x 4 3/4" rectangle of scrapbook paper
-Approx. 2" circle of scrapbook paper or cardstock. You can cut it with decorative scissors or use a paper punch.
-20" ribbon


Cover blank notecard with scrapbook paper.


I shaded the edges of the scalloped circle with a foam ink pad.


Just quickly rub the edges, as shown.


Cut a small slit in card fold with craft knife.


Stamp or add a sticker to scalloped circle and punch a small hole. Thread ribbon through slit and then through tag. Secure with knot.


I also added a tiny pearl gem.


Send to a friend!
