Hand-made Christmas cards
Are you feeling festive yet? December is just around the corner, so it’s time to make a start on your Christmas cards.
Time is short for the majority of us,
but it’s so special to send hand-made
cards that it’s worth the effort.
They don’t need to be excessive, or take hours to make – a few simple touches can be used to maximum impact.
So grab a laptray and a few materials and you can knock up cards in no time whilst perched on the sofa watching Coronation Street!
Equipment
- Pencil
- Christmas papers
- Scissors
- Blank cards
- Double-sided tape
- Embellishments; assortment of any: ribbons, diamonte, buttons, Christmassy sequins
Method
- Draw a stocking/bauble/present shape on the back of a Christmas paper.
- Cut out shape and stick onto a blank card using double-sided tape.
