Hello friends! Today is tutorial day at
The Kraft Journal and I'm going to show you how to make a set of notecards to go along with this week's "Christmas Gifts" challenge theme.
As a cardmaker, I love to give out sets of cards for others to use. For these, I started out with the
lunch bag kraft notecard/envelope set chose some coordinating
journaling cards,
hemp cord,
chipboard banners,
ruler twill ribbon, and
chipboard milk bottle caps.

I chose the Fly a Kite collection papers from October afternoon and cut them to fit the notecards.

I wanted the banners to coordinate so I traced them onto coordinating papers, cut, out and adhered to the chipboard pieces.

After the banners were covered, I glued them to the hemp twine.

Once I cut the papers down to size, I adhered them to the notecards and glued the ruler ribbon over the seam.

I stamped the journaling cards with some versatile sentiments.

I tied the chipboard milk caps with the hemp cord, layed out the elements, and fastened everything down.

I plan to give this set to my mother in law and think she'll love them and find good uses for all of them!
