Designer’s Tip: Cutting your card into a fun shape is an easy way to make it stand out.

Instructions:

  1. Place a blank card with the fold on top. Cover with Streets blue paper. Trace the bottom edge using the Easy Scalloped Frames Template and trim. Ink card edges using brown ink.
  2. Cut a 1 1/2”x6 1/2" strip of brown cardstock and ink the edges brown. Glue 1 1/2” from the top of the card. Glue 1/4" brown gingham ribbon along the center of the brown cardstock.
  3. Assemble the papier tole using foam tape and glue over the brown cardstock 7/8” from the left card edge. Glue the “Wishing” greeting over the brown cardstock 1/2" from the right card edge.
  4. Tie a bow using 1/4" brown gingham ribbon and glue on the greeting corner.

Inside:

  1. Cut 2 1/2”x6" white cardstock. Ink the edges brown and mat on Streets blue paper leaving a 1/8” border. Ink the edges brown and glue 1/16” from the fold of the card.
