Wrapping Paper Card

What a fun way to use scraps of wrapping paper leftover from years past. Attach it to a colorful blank piece of cardstock, then embellish it with metallic threads and Diamond Beadlets.

Materials needed:

• scraps of wrapping paper
• blue cardstock (or your choice of colors), to make a small card
• matching envelope
• 4" x 6" piece of Treasure Tape
• Diamond Beadlets™
• Kreinik 1/8" ribbon in 033 Royal Blue
• Kreinik #12 Braid in 033 Royal blue, 002J Japan Gold, 008C Green Cord

Instructions:

1. Using a glue stick or pieces of Treasure Tape, attach the scrap of wrapping paper to the cardstock. We cut the paper 1/2" smaller than the cardstock, then centered it on the front.
2. Cut the Treasure Tape to be 1/4" smaller than your wrapping paper piece. Lay the Treasure Tape centered on top. Remove the red liner to expose the top sticky part.
3. Lay the metallic ribbon along the edge of the tape. Press down to make sure it adheres and lays flat.
4. Decorate other areas with the metallic braid.
5. When thread decorating is complete, lay the card in a shallow pan and sprinkle remaining sticky areas with Diamond Beadlets.
