Steps

  1. Take a piece of paper and draw a simple design. It could be a flower, or initials, or anything you want.
  2. Use card stock or another heavyweight paper, and cut out the pattern. Lightly tape the pattern to the card stock. Take a pencil and trace on the pattern, so that you can make a imprint on the cardstock.

Tips
