I love simple.
I love making handmade cards.
I grabbed some felt scraps, cut out a simple heart, stitched around the edge, and simple “I love you” cards…
I made these b-day cards by simply cutting small triangles using my fabric scraps and making a little banner…
So simple.
So much fun.

These are great!
Did you first attach the fabric pieces and then hand stitch on top of the card?
Kari says
Oops, I left that part out. I just used a little glue stick to adhere them down and then I stitched them together. I made them two big batches of cards in one hour! super easy.

Making cards is on my to-do list! I figure if I just sit and make a bunch at one time then I should have some on hand when I need them!

Very pretty!
Homemade Mommy says
How simple! I think sometimes our creativity gets held back by sticking with one medium. I love how you combined two (fabric and paper). Something to always keep in mind.

LOVE these Kari! I’m not big into all the layers of traditional scrapbook or stamped cards, but these are simple and perfect. Pinning!

I love your simple cards! Thank you for sharing your ideas.
Kari says
thanks Linds! The letters are actually “rub-ons” I found hiding in my stash from 10 years ago! I think using your own handwriting would be fun, too!
JennyLynn says
Very cute! Something I could use some scraps from quilting to make these. I need some thank-you cards.

LOVE those banner cards! Do you use a special sewing needle for this? Doesn’t the paper dull your sewing needle? I SO want to do this for a card set as a gift. Just wondering if I need to label some needles ONLY for sewing on paper. Thanks in advance!
