How to Create Your Own Trophy Card

Use card-making supplies to create a trophy card.

Whether you are making a card for a loved one who has just won an award, or you want to congratulate a friend on a personal achievement, a homemade trophy card is the perfect way to do it. Use the trophy card for Father's Day, Mother's Day, graduations or sports games. You can create a shining trophy card to present to your winner with card-making and craft supplies at home.

Things You'll Need

• Prefolded card stock
• Pencil
• Cutting board
• Craft knife
• Glue stick
• Gold metallic paper
• Indelible markers

Instructions

1. Draw the shape of a trophy onto the back of a sheet of gold metallic paper. Draw it smaller or equal to the size of the front panel of the prefolded card stock so it fits.

2. Place the gold metallic paper, drawing-side up, onto a cutting board, and cut along the pencil lines to remove the trophy shape.

3. Apply glue to the back of the trophy shape with a glue stick, and press it in place over the front of the card.

4. Write a message on the trophy with an indelible marker to indicate what it is for. For example, "Best Dad Ever" or "Congratulations to the Winner."

5. Write a personal message inside the card.
