Figure A--This card was designed and printed on a computer, and a wax-seal imprint of the Star of David provides a bold touch. Dip the stamp in oil so that it doesn't stick when pressed into the melted wax.

Figure B--Several layers of paper and a stamp were used to give this card a vintage appearance. Lightly brush dry brown powder over the stamp imprint to give the card a sepia tone.

Figure C--This card is made up of four layers of paper, including corrugated, printed, and Italian-print papers. Some papers were cut to size, but others were ripped to give texture to the edges.
