Steps to Making a Card
- Start with a blank card or a piece of folded cardstock.
- Cut a piece of patterned paper to size of the front of the card and glue it on.
- If the pattern paper is overwhelming, then cut a solid matching colored piece of paper one inch smaller all around and center it on the front.
- Add stickers and other embellishment to create a design on the front.
- Add a sentiment to the inside of the cards.
