Description

If ever I have a 'card emergency' I roll out one of these cards as it's pretty quick, but also quite professional looking, whilst still having a hand made look.

Instructions

  1. Small image

    I first found a nice piece of clip art on the Microsoft Design Gallery website. I love this site for free images for my cards.

  2. Small image

    Then in Photoshop I wrote on my greeting and then flipped out so that I had a mirror image.

  3. Small image

    I then printed my image onto the rough side of some transparency sheet, cut it out and then attached it to a card front with 2 eyelets.

  4. Small image

    Finally I threaded some ribbon through the eyelets and knotted a few short pieces of ribbon to the front.

  5. Small image

    One very simple, but effective speedy card.

    So speedy that you could knock out different variations at the same time...
