Nothing says ‘I love you’ more than a thoughtful gift or card. Make your special someone feel like the apple of your eye with this beautiful handmade card! Using our beautiful Glass Faceted Beads, give your note the most memorable sparkly finish!
Supplies Needed:
- Thick Sewing Needle with sharp end
- Sewing Thread or Jewelry Making Thread
- 1-2 strand of Glass Faceted Beads
- Printed Photo
- Colored Cardstock or Scrapbooking Paper
- Scissors
- Double Sided Tape & Regular Tape
- Beading Needle
Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Gather up your paper supplies and cut out your card and photo to the dimensions you’re pleased with.
-
Taking your photo, and laying it on a cutting board or piece of foam, puncture holes in your photo with your needle. These holes should be about the same width apart as the width of your beads. We drew out the shape of a heart and punctured our holes using it as a guide. Let your creativity go wild!
-
Using your thread and beading needle, thread on your beads onto your picture one at a time. Tape down your strings on the back side when you’ve completed your design to keep the photo flat.
- Using your double sided tape, tape your photo to the card you’ve made. Add any other fun additions to your card to make it unique!
