Special Notes: The first step in creating a paper card is to choose the right type of card. You want to use a card made out of thick paper called card-stock. You can create your own cards out of card stock or buy blank cards at your local art or craft store. This project uses a card that is 5”x7” so if you are making your own you need to cut your paper 10”x7”.
