I pre-scheduled the previous post today and then remembered this morning that I’d wanted to put up something that you all could use for Mother’s Day. In working on blog posts today I found these two tutorials for using fabric scraps to make greeting cards. I thought I’d have a “double feature” today and just go ahead and post these as well. There’s still time to make a few cards for some special ladies you want to remember on Mother’s Day. :-)
These cards are great for just about any occasion, though, so be creative!
The first tutorial takes larger scraps, but it’s fast and easy and you could add other decorations as you wish – lace, rick rack, buttons, bias tape, etc. If you don’t have spray adhesive try a glue stick.
This second tutorial is supposed to be Valentine cards, but they can easily be used for any holiday or event. It’s a great way to use up scraps from an iron-on project. If you don’t have scraps, you will need something like Wonder Under or Pellon that has iron-on glue on both sides.
What a great idea! I make all of my cards handmade using stamps, but I also have stashes of fabric too! Thanks for sharing a very inspirational easy craft!
ReplyDeleteGreat! I'm glad you like it. I want to try it too, but I'm not sure I'll get the chance this weekend. :-)
DeleteNow that is a neat idea!! Hmm. I think Miss Holly will love that idea, too! We have lots of little scraps we could use!
ReplyDeleteWish we could work on some together. :-) I hope you have lots of fun making some.
DeleteWhat a great idea! I did this for the first time on Mother's Day and loved the feel of my fabric cards!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked it. :-) I hope to make some myself soon.
DeleteWhat a fun and creative idea! I love making card and I definitely have a lot of scrap fabric so this is right up my alley :) Thanks for sharing with Roses of Inspiration. Hugs and blessings!
ReplyDeleteI love card making too, but I haven't made any in too long. I hope you'll share some of the results. :-) I'm sure you'll come up with some pretty ideas based on what I've seen.
DeleteYou're welcome. ((hugs))
