Step 1
Look in craft stores for tiny charms and pendants that reflect the holiday or occasion. For example, a cherub charm would be appropriate for the winter holidays or a wedding. Make sure that the charm or pendant has a metal loop through which you can insert a tiny ribbon.
-
Step 2
Refer to related eHow "How to Hand Paint Holiday Cards" for instructions on how to find a design for your greeting card. Make the card and decorate it.
-
Step 3
Choose a satin ribbon that coordinates with the colors used in your card's design. The ribbon should be about 8 inches long and narrow enough to fit through the metal loop attached to the charm. A ribbon width of 1/8 inch works well with most small charms.
-
Step 4
Look for a paper hole punch that will create a hole about the same size as the charm's metal loop.
-
Step 5
Locate the center point on the top edge of the greeting card's face. Make two pencil marks: one 1/4 inch to the left of the center point and another 1/4 inch to the right. Both marks should be about 1/8 inch from the top edge.
-
Step 6
Punch two holes through the card - one over each of the pencil marks made in step 5.
-
Step 7
Insert the ends of the ribbon through the punched holes from the back of the card's face - one through each hole. Arrange the ribbon so that an equal length protrudes from each hole.
-
Step 8
Insert either end of the ribbon through the charm's metal loop and push the charm along the ribbon's length until it touches the card face. Tie a bow with the ribbon - the charm should hang from the center of the bow.
