The paper crafters of Scrapbooking, Papercrafts & More club frequently find creative ways to adapt card patterns to serve new purposes.
SPAM member Annie Erickson recently taught members how to make a wreath card. The card, which she designed to feature a halo or donut shape rising at the fold, resembles a wreath and may be decorated befitting any occasion or season. Once the main card base is assembled it can be tailored for anything from birthdays to holidays and more.
With Halloween and Thanksgiving around the corner, several club members designed cards highlighting colorful autumn leaves scattered at varying angles over the wreath. Another member attached a small ghost image on string from the top of the wreath enabling the little ghoul to dangle and spin freely in the center.
Learn how to make greeting cards, scrapbooks (traditional or digital) and other paper crafts by joining SPAM in Beardsley Center’s Agave Room on Wednesday (4-9 p.m./winters), Thursday (10 a.m.-3 p.m.), Friday (10 a.m.-3 p.m.) and Saturday (10 a.m.-5 p.m.).
