DIY Wedding card #2

I enjoyed making the first wedding card so much that I decided to make another one so I can save them for future use.  The style of this wedding card is similar to the first one but the design is quite different (which goes to show that if even with only one concept, you can create different designs and pieces from it).

FINISHED PRODUCT: (if you don't like the colors that I have chosen then feel free to use other colors)

HOW TO DO IT:

Step 1:
- take a piece of construction paper and fold it in half
- then take a white piece of paper and cut it so that on the front, it's all around one inch smaller than the brown piece


Step two:
- take another piece of paper (matching to color theme of the card) and trim it down so that it's all around one inch smaller than the white part
- next, punch four holes (evenly spaced) across the top of the card (the folded end)
- string ribbon through the holes so that it meets back at the center and tie it into a bow



Step 3:
- type and print out a nice greeting onto a white piece of paper
- trim the paper down so that it's all around two inches smaller than the inside of the card (when placed in the center)
- next, use another piece of paper and trim a border for it

Step 4:
- use stickers to decorate the front of the card (i bought this set from a discounted retailer store called B and J's Trading on Spadina because they sell nice stickers at a discounted price.  The set was made by Jolee's Boutique, which can also be found at Walmart, Zellers and Michaels)
