This month I’ll share several Patriotic Cards with Buttons. These would all be fun to do with the kids for friends and neighbors. Now that the kids are out of school, it’s fun to do crafts with them, right?
I’ve been creating several fun projects for an upcoming blog hop, the I LOVE THE USA Blog Hop. I had some embroidery thread left, and thought it would be fun to jazz up some buttons.
Supplies
- Buttons – Laura Kelly Patriotic Mix
- Neenah White #110 Cardstock (DiscountCardstock.com)
- SRM Stickers
- Ribbon – Michael’s
- Embroidery Thread – Coats & Clark, Twine – Doodlebug Design
- Tools – Scor-Board, Floss Threader
- Adhesive – Hot Glue from Adtech, Redliner Tape
How to Create Patriotic Cards with Buttons
- Cut a piece of Neenah Solar White #110 4.25×11 and score in half. On the front of the card, score some additional lines above and below where you would like your ribbon placed.
- Adhere ribbon on card with Redliner Tape.
- Add stickers.
- Tie several strands of embroidery thread with twine to Patriotic buttons as shown below. Trim ends.
- Hot Glue buttons to ribbon on card.
