DIY :: Scrap Paper Rounds Card

I am always punching paper rounds from bits and pieces of paper that are leftover from projects. I decided to throw some on a card, adhere them, stitch a border around it and call it done.  A fun card that can be used for anything (this one is a simple "Hello!" card), and uses up random bits of scrap paper :)

Super easy to make, all you need is:

+ scrap paper

+ paper punches (I used a 1.5" round, 1" round, and 1" scalloped round)

+ white cardstock card and matching envelope

+ rolling adhesive

+ sewing machine and thread

+ scissors (or ruler, rotary cutter and cutting mat)

I started by laying out the paper rounds in a general way of how I wanted them to be - I ended up taking a few away, moving others around, but it was a good starting point. I adhered them with permanent rolling adhesive.

Next, I stitched a border around the card, twice. No straight lines or anything, just fun and quick stitches around the perimeter.

This is what the card looked like at this point:

I flipped the card over and trimmed off the access paper rounds, then folded it and trimmed off the access at the fold.

I used a black pen, wrote "Hello!" and voila! a fun and easy to make greeting card :)
