{"product_id":"black-and-white-card-project","title":"A Black-and-White Card Bundle","description":"\u003cp\u003eLike most crafters, I find it nearly impossible to purchase cards and stationery from the store. How could I when I have piles of art supplies that I\u003cspan lang=\"JA\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003ell never use up?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhenever I get the urge to do something creative, I tend to make batches of cards so I\u003cspan lang=\"JA\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003ell have them on hand in case I need one at the last minute. It\u003cspan lang=\"JA\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003es no secret that I love the different \u003ca title=\"collage tissue papers\" href=\"\/collections\/the-shoppe-ranger\"\u003ecollage tissue papers\u003c\/a\u003e available these days, and so they\u003cspan lang=\"JA\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003eve been my go-to when starting my cards.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eHow-to Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eFirst, I cut cardstock to my desired size, and fold it in half. I then cut a piece of tissue paper so that it\u003cspan lang=\"JA\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003es slightly larger than the card front. Next, I apply a layer of decoupage medium to the card, place the tissue paper on top, and seal it with another layer of decoupage medium. When everything has dried, I trim the excess tissue paper, and apply ink with a blending tool to the edges of the card to hide any imperfections. Sometimes I will emboss a sentiment on the front of the card, but I like to leave a few cards blank so I can add a custom sentiment if needed. A bunch of these cards can be done in no time at all, and also make a great gift for a friend when bundled with some pretty ribbon.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eProject\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eChristen Hammons is the Director of Publishing for Stampington \u0026amp; Company and editor-in-chief of \u003c\/em\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mad-about-metallics-project\/somerset-studio\"\u003eSomerset Studio\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cem\u003e, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bella-grace\/\"\u003eBella Grace\u003c\/a\u003e, Field Guide to Everyday Magic,\u003cem\u003e and \u003c\/em\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/greencraft-magazine\/\"\u003eGreenCraft\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cem\u003e.
