Boston Terrier Greeting Card - Free Paper Craft Pattern


Sample cards
 
Sample messages

Not only is this graphic Boston terrier card adorable (and who doesn't love Boston terriers?) but the front message can be customized to say whatever it is you need to say. Cool right?

For this project I've provided the high resolution card template as well as a sheet of block letters and common sayings. To customize your message simply cut out individual letters, or one of the sayings, and paste to the front of the card.

TIP: Hate messy glue? For the above samples I printed the letters onto a sheet of Avery sticker paper. Simply cut and stick - no mess!

YOU WILL NEED:
  1. Printer
  2. 1 sheet of mediumweight 8.5x11 paper (45 lb/170 gm)
  3. 1 sheet of Avery sticker paper (or regular lightweight paper)
  4. Utility knife or scissors
  5. Glue
  6. OPTIONAL: 1 piece of 7 3/4" x 5 1/4" lightweight paper for insert
HOW TO MAKE:
  1. Download the card template      http://www.flickr.com/photos/54281161@N02/5120920931/
  2. Print
  3. Cut out card
  4. Fold in half
  5. Cut out letters and paste your message to card front
  6. OPTIONAL: If you'd like to add an insert to the card fold a piece of 7 3/4" x 5 1/4" paper in half lengthwise. Drag a glue stick along the folded edge and place inside fold of card. Press in place.
  7. Enjoy!

The 4 instruction page files can be printed out on regular old computer paper but the 2 pumpkin templates should be printed out on quality medium weight stock. I've included a list of some of my favourite papers.
I currently have this pattern for sale in my Etsy shop where you get THREE different face designs with your $6 purchase.
Enjoy and happy pumpkin assembling!
