Ordering blank single side Fourth of July cards can be expensive, but when you make them yourself, it’s less expensive and you can tailor them the way you want. It’s also much more enjoyable to make the cards at home. They’re super-easy to make, require very few materials and are much prettier than many store-bought items.
What you’ll need:
Step 1. Cut the white cardstock to the size you want the card to be.
Step 2. Adhere firework paper to each piece of cardstock, then trim off the excess.
Step 3. Measure out another piece of white cardstock that is slightly smaller than your base card.
Step 4. Center the second piece of cardstock, then using Mod Podge, adhere it on top of the first piece.
Step 5. Use a bit of Mod Podge to attach red, white and blue embellishments along the bottom of the card. I used a section from Fourth of July garland.
The great thing about these cards is that you can use them as invites, menu cards, ingredient cards or place cards. The possibilities are endless!
