Making a Monster Greeting Card

Total Time: Half hour

Yield: 1 card

Supplies:

• 1 8 1/2" by 11" piece of cardstock paper
• scraps of accent color paper
• 5 bread tabs
• ruler
• pen
• Sharpie marker
• scissors
• glue gun
• google eyes
• letter stencil

Steps:

1. Fold your large piece of card stock in half.

 
2. Using your ruler, make a line on the corner so that you can cut a triangle.

 
3. Make 2. Mine are 5 1/2" long at widest point, 2 1/2" tall.

4. Glue your first triangle at the top of your card. I actually used a glue gun for this. This may be a no-no for the real scrap-bookers, but it worked fine for this. Glue the second triangle directly below.

 
5. Hot glue a big google eye on your first bread tab.

 
6. Glue it to your card.

 
7. Here's the second.

8. Third.

 
9. So far.

 
10. And the rest, hard to believe a bread tab can actually look cute, huh? :)

 
11. Now I used a cheap stencil ruler from the dollar store to make the words. They look cute if you angle them different directions.

 
12. I also decided to draw over every other letter with a silver Sharpie. It matched the triangles nicely.

13. Now all you have to do is pick a special little boy to give it to. Have fun! :)
