For this card, I wanted it to look like a DIY belt. I made the top band with two strips of the brown, putting them together at the 'in' bend so it wasn't noticeable. I cut the various shapes needed out of card, and used fineliner to draw a dotted line round them all to give the effect of sewn on leather. I wasn't sure what to do with the metal fixings so I printed some off, cut them out and stuck them on. I created a patch to write a short message on as well, so I didn't have to write on the back, although that is also possible. The shiny card proved hard to cut without bending, but grey card would do the job well too.
