This project is actually one of my favorite DIY cards because I find cards that are made with ribbon are very pretty!
Final Product:
MATERIALS USED:
- ribbon from Michaels
- blank cards (I bought mine from Wal-Mart and they are Martha Stewart)
- alphabet stickers from Wal-Mart
- white tissue paper from the Dollar Store
- overhead sheets/projection paper from Wal-Mart
HOW TO MAKE IT:
Step 1:
- take a blank card (any color of your choice) and punch 3 holes on the top of the front side
- outline a rectangle exactly 1.5 centimeters from all the sides and it out to leave the card with 1.5 cm frame
- take an overhead sheet and cut out a rectangle slightly wider and longer than the rectangle that was cut out from the card
- glue the clear rectangle onto the back of the front side (without covering the 3 holes on the top)
Step 2:
- take a piece of tissue paper and cut out a small piece that 3 cm in length and will fit across the card
- on one of the longer sides, cut semi-circles of different sizes across the sheet
- glue the tissue onto the inside of the card and trim off any ends that hang out on the sides and edges
Step 3:
- take the alphabet letters and write a holiday message of your choice
- use a white-out pen and draw various dots across the card to look like snowfall
Step 4:
- select your choice of ribbon and cut out roughly 15 cm in length
- string it the holes from the inside and back out to the front and tie a ribbon with the ends
