52 Reasons Why: A Card-Based Playing Book
This is an idea you can execute for a special loved one if you have an empty deck. On the card, express your love for each individual by writing something like, “You are the reason for my smile” or “You look beautiful.” Make a hole or two in every card. Make sure they are in the same place on each card to guarantee that everything lines up correctly. Join the cards using a ring binding. That concludes things! You now possess the perfect gift for birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, or any other noteworthy occasion.
A Clock with Playing Cards
Using an old clock and a deck of playing cards, create a whole new clock! All you need to design it is a deck of cards, an antique clock, scissors, glue, cardboard, and a screwdriver. First, retrieve the clock with a flat screwdriver, and then remove the clockwises. If you have a simple color clock, that will work well. You can also color it if not.
Cutting a piece of cardboard to fit inside the clock’s inner radius is the next step. Mark the areas where the cards will be pasted. Choose the cards you want to use on your clock next, then try sticking them. Ensure that the last card is positioned underneath the first. Next, you need to cut the edges of the card and punch a hole in the middle of the sheet. It could be adhered to your playing cards in the center. When everything is finally put back together, you will have a fantastic gift.
With a playing card flower, this hair clip/pin
You must be accustomed to creating flowers out of various shaped paper sheets; the same is true with playing cards. It is possible to create lovely flowers and adhere them to a hair clip. A deck of cards, scissors, glue sticks, buttons for the flower centers, and plain hair clips or pins are all you’ll need. First, cut the cards into three distinct sizes, preferably in the shape of a leaf or flower petal. Fold a little tab on the underside of each petal, and then cut a small notch in the middle of the tab. Put your finger around the petal tips. They hold their form with ease. Apply a tiny quantity of hot glue to the card tab’s upper right corner. After overlapping the card tab, press the two parts together to apply adhesive.
Keep folding and affixing big petals. Allow the glue on the last two petals to dry before gathering the end cards to form a circle. Use glue to affix the final two card tabs. Attach the medium- and small-sized petals in the same manner, working from large to tiny. Next, press the button into the middle of the flower. Your flowers are now ready to be used; attach them to handbags, hair clips or pins, and numerous other empty objects. Your recently created gift is prepared.
Playing cards as ornaments
Do you enjoy making festive decorations throughout the year so that you will have an assortment of methods to present your artistic creations when the holiday season finally rolls around? This is something that is sure to grab your attention.
A deck of cards, a bundle of tiny wires, a selection of buttons or beads, wire cutters and pliers, a scissor, a large needle, and threads or strings are needed.
How to accomplish it To begin, cut a number of playing cards into 1/2′′ strips. Select 16 parts to make your first ornament. Every component needs a hole drilled at the top and bottom, approximately 1/4′′ from the end. Cut a piece of wire to a length of about 10 inches, and at one end, make a little loop. Begin by stringing one bead to act as a stopper, and then add each card piece individually. Once all of the card pieces are on the wire, add about 1-1/2′′ of beads as spacers.
Beginning with the bottom piece, carefully feed the wire through the hole punched on the other end of the card. Likewise, lay the next lowest card up against a side and carry out the same procedure with it. Once you’ve completed each component, keep switching between the two sides of the decoration. A sphere should soon begin to form. There should be just enough space for the final (interior) component to fit through. Once all the parts are rewrapped, add one or two additional beads, create a loop in the wire, and trim the object. Simple enough, just slip a ribbon through the loop to create a festive accent.
