Hello there friends. Today I’d like to share a super easy card design
that can be mass produced for your holiday greetings. It’s also a great way to
use up ribbon scraps.
Instructions:
Gather your supplies. I will show you on a different blog post where
all my ribbon scraps came from but for now, you can see all sorts of widths and
lengths of ribbon in the mix. This design is also very useful to use up tools
such as embossing folder, die and glitter glue.
Create your card base from whatever cardstock you prefer. I made mine
from white cardstock to measure 4 ¼ x 5 ½”. I then cut a 4 x 5 ¼” piece of
white cardstock and ran them through my Cuttlebug using the Swiss dot embossing
folder.
Next, I used a gold shimmer cardstock to cut my Christmas tree die
from. I ran it through my die cut machine twice to make that all of the detail
cuts were made.
After that, I assembled the card. I picked out a pattern paper with red
and green strips on it as a border and laid out how I want my ribbon scraps to
go under the pattern paper strip. I then cut notches on each one and adhered to
a ¾” strip of pattern paper.
I first adhered my embossed background onto the card then my red strip
with ribbon scraps under it; Followed by the die cut Christmas tree. To add
some more texture, I filled the star top of the die with glitter glue.
Here
are some more close ups of the cards….
I hope this inspired you to add some ribbon scraps to your next
project. Thank you for stopping by.
