Supplies Needed:
Cardstock or construction paper
Scissors
Glue or tape
Decorative elements (stickers, stamps, ribbons, etc.)
Markers, pens, or colored pencils
Instructions:
1 Choose the card size and shape. Typical sizes are 4×6 inches or 5×7 inches. You can make a standard rectangular card or get creative with different shapes like a square or heart.
2 Fold the cardstock in half to create the card base. Crease the fold firmly.
3 Decorate the front of the card. You can draw or write a message, add stickers or stamps, or use other decorative elements. Get creative and make it personal!
4 For the inside of the card, you can write a heartfelt message, include a poem or quote, or add more decorations. Leave room for the recipient to write their own note.
5 Add additional layers or elements to the front or inside. For example, you could glue on a piece of patterned paper, ribbon, or die-cut shapes.
6 Consider adding a special touch like glitter, puffy paint, or embossing to make the card extra special.
7 Once you’re finished decorating, use glue or double-sided tape to secure any loose elements.
8 Let the card dry completely before giving it to the recipient.
