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!

We have another birthday at our house today. Benjamin is now 8 years old and we have a fun day planned with new toys, pudding cups with neighborhood friends, pizza for dinner and a gummy worm and oreo cake. I'll share pictures soon!
A few more things I've made recently...
Items can be found in my Etsy Shop! Thank you for stopping by for a visit!

Happy Birthday to Benjamin! He is one VERY handsome young man. And since I used to teach 3rd grade, 8 years old is about my most favorite, besides the toddler stage. He looks like one terrific young man. I hope he has a great day.

Happy Birthday Benjamin!
Wow, he's getting all grown up!

The cards are all lovely. Thanks for the tip about going around the edges with an ink pad. Someone else told me they used a paintbrush and ink pad, but this sounds much simpler.
Happy birthday to Benjamin! Sounds like you have a fun day planned.
Thanks for the card. It's beautful!
Blessings,
Wanita
