These mini handmade cards are the perfect tiny complement to any gift, and they take only minutes to make. Start with a small piece of cardstock in any color (these cards are 4″ x 3″) and fold it in half. To create the paper strips that act as “ribbon”, cut strips of cardstock in a second color of your choice that fit both lengthwise and vertically to the front of your card. Glue the strips to the card in a crisscross pattern to mimic the ribbon on a boxed gift. Then use a circle punch to create the button from a 3rd cardstock color. Glue your button at the paper strip intersection and finish the button with small drawn-on button holes.
Materials: 3 small pieces of cardstock in different colors, a circle punch, marker for drawing detail, glue, scissors/paper cutter, ruler (if needed to make precise paper cuts)
