I made this card last week for my husband. Recently I got the Karen Foster clikit system from Costco.com (it was only $6.99 with free shipping here) and it came with a double-tipped applicator that I knew was for threading ribbon. So I made this card for my husband to show him how it worked. I stamped the background with a bunch of different star stamps I had. I traced a big star from one of the old plastic templates I have left over from my early days of scrapbooking when we used to cut pictures into shapes all the time. I then used the clikit tool and punched holes at the tip and in the middle of each side. I threaded ribbon through the holes and then cut out the whole thing. I made the part that I had traced by the back side so that no pencil marks showed through. It was a fun card to make.
