First, I cut the Brown Cardstock into a 4 1/4 x 12 strip. Then, I cut that into two 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card bases. You should have a 1" x 4 1/4" piece of brown cardstock leftover. KEEP THAT! :)

Next, I cut the trees into a 3 3/4 x 12 strip. I cut those down to 3 3/4 x 5 so you'll have another scrap leftover. KEEP THAT! :)

I cut my striped paper into a 1 x 12 strip and then cut that down to a 1 x 3 1/2 strip. Then I took my Fiskars Treading Water border punch and punched one edge.

Next, I cut my ribbon into 4 1/4 pieces. I inked all of the edges of the papers and layered them together.

Last, I finished the cards off with my Doodlebug rubon sentiments and stickers from American Crafts.
