Alphabet beads spell out the
thought behind this colorful
card.

1. Fold a sheet of white 7-1/2-x-8-1/2-inch card stock in half. Trim a sheet of coordinating paper to fit the front of the card, leaving a small border. Cut two carrot shapes from orange paper -- one slightly smaller than the other -- and attach to the front of the card with adhesive foam.
2. Cut a 1-1/2-x-2-1/2-inch rectangle of green card stock into thin strips, stopping 1/4 inch from the bottom edge. Roll the fringe into a tight cylinder and attach the rolled end to the card, tucking it behind the carrot.
3. Add mini brads on either side of the carrot. String alphabet beads onto green wire, leaving extra length at either end to wrap around the brads.
