Keepsake Card
Supplies:
Laminating Pockets
Patterned Paper
Letter Stickers

1. Carefully open up the laminate sheet. To the adhesive side, adhere the
patterned paper so that it completely covers the adhesive with a 1/2” overhang on each edge.
2. Trim the patterned paper so that the pack page of the card is flush with the front clear cover.
3. Adhere the contrasting card stock to the outside cover as shown. Use stamps and ink pad, stickers and other items to embellish the cover.
4. Write your personal greeting on the inside page. Try to stay behind the
contrasting cover sheet. This will create a nice surprise for your recipient.
