Crafty Corner

Looking for a quick little craft to do on a rainy day or a quiet night? For a while I was collecting cards and stationary...but I used it all up. SO...I had the idea to make my own!

First Step: Select paper. I use double sided scrap book paper. Both sides have a different print and it's very sturdy!

Second Step: Cut paper to desired size. You can do open faced or closed faced cards. I prefer the open faced!

Third step: Find some craft scissors to make cute borders!

Fourth Step: Glue a piece of solid paper onto the printed paper for a place to write.You can place the paper in different spots to get more of a variety :)

Step Five: Now you can start adding ribbon or something to spiff it up a bit!

  I also like to make little bows or put some buttons on

Step Seven: To finish off your crafty card, you could get a little stamp to put in the corner of each of your creations. I'm still looking for my "signature stamp" but for now I'll borrow this little guy :)

There are so many things you can do with these cards. With the limited resources I have right now, I can actually make a lot of varieties! Here are a few others I have made in the past:

I hope you enjoyed this little Crafty Corner session :) Be creative and have fun!!!
