Mother's Day is Sunday! So I thought I would also share a quick how-to for making a Mother's Day card with scrap paper. I used some spare scrapbook paper that I had, and a 5x7 (A7) blank greeting card. You can find blank greeting cards at many local big-name stores, and online also. You could also use blank card stock paper if you have it around your home!
Here's what I did, and the supplies I used:
In case you can't read the text on the pictures (the text is smaller than I thought), here are the steps:
Supplies: Blank Greeting Card or Card stock, Glue/Sealant, Paint, Pen, Your favorite quote or Poem, Scrap Paper ( I used Scrapbook paper), Paint Brush.
1. Draw a pattern on the blank card, and add colored paint of your choice (I used acrylic paint).
Then paint over this with white paint before the colored paint has completely dried.
2. Write a quote or poem of your choice over the paint.
Then lightly paint over the written text with white paint also.
3. Lay out the scrap paper in whatever pattern that you like.
Seal it on the greeting card with glue or glaze. I used Inkssentials Glossy Accents.
Have a great Tuesday! If you have found any great how-to's today, or have one of your own, share them in the comments section of this post. I would love to check them out.
