2nd anniversary card

On 04/13/201307/09/2015 By IlyereIn Cardmaking, Papercraft

Hello all! I’ve recently come back from spending my 2nd anniversary with my boyfriend. For the occasion, I made him a personalised card; nothing too complicated, I just put together some pretty papers with a theme in mind. Want to make it yourself? I’ve add a few progress shots after the big photo.

The patterned paper was a free gift from the UK’s Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine, everything else is just plain card.

Materials: Red, white and black card, red and black paper, patterned red paper, red organza ribbon, black gel pen, one red heart gem, glue stick, double-side sticky tape, scissors

Measured out and cut the pieces of card and patterned paper

Cut out seven black hearts and one red heart from paper

Stuck the hearts down and wrote messages and faux stitching on the white card

Start gluing stuff down to make the outlines and frames — Glue the white card to the black card, and then to the patterned paper on the red card

Cut out two ribbon strands, made one into a bow, and secured both with double-sticky tape
