1. DIY New Year cards (“Christmas tree”)
The New Year tree is an indispensable attribute of the holiday. Therefore, postcards with her image will be especially appropriate. Plus, these cards can be very easy to make.
The New Year's tree applique can be made from plain or multi-colored strips of paper. Even a small child can make this New Year's craft with his own hands.
Strips of paper can be replaced with colored tape or braid. They also make very beautiful New Year's cards.
A more complicated option is a New Year's card "Christmas tree" made from paper tubes. This original three-dimensional New Year's card "Christmas tree" is made of paper tubes. The Christmas tree is decorated with multi-colored buttons. Its trunk is made from a twig. To make this New Year's card, it is advisable to use special scrapbooking paper or corrugated cardboard.
Very easy to do New Year's applique Christmas tree using purchased stickers. Even a two-year-old can do this craft for the New Year with his own hands.
Simple and effective - homemade New Year's cards "Christmas tree" from ordinary buttons.
You can also embroider a Christmas tree with threads. Only in this case, the New Year's card should be made of high-density paper or cardboard. The holes must first be carefully made with an awl. For the simplest version of a Christmas tree, see the photo below.
For a more complex version of a New Year's card with a Christmas tree made of threads, see here >>>> To make this New Year's craft with your own hands, you will also need sequins or beads.
By the way, you can embroider not only a Christmas tree with threads, but also something else, New Year’s. For example, this cute deer.
You can make an original DIY New Year's card from a fern leaf or any other plant similar to it. For example, cypress branches. Just take the top of the leaf and glue it onto the card. This will be a Christmas tree. All you have to do is decorate it with sequins or confetti made using a hole punch from colored paper. Instead of confetti, you can glue multi-colored pieces of plasticine to the Christmas tree. This part of the homemade work New Year's cards Even a baby can do it.
You can make a New Year's card either from a whole leaf of fern, or just from its upper part.
The technique for making volumetric Christmas trees is similar to the manufacturing method New Year's balls. See the link >>>> But you don’t have to glue them together completely, instead glue the Christmas trees onto the card.
Option 3.
Do-it-yourself voluminous New Year's card. To make such a voluminous card with a Christmas tree for the New Year, you will need three square sheets of green paper: large, medium and small. Also, in order to make a Christmas tree trunk, you will need a rectangular sheet of brown paper.
Fold each square piece of paper in half first (horizontally and vertically) to mark the center lines. Then fold them two more times diagonally. After this, fold each sheet into a pyramid (see photos 3 and 4). Glue a Christmas tree from the resulting pyramids by inserting them into each other. How to make a trunk for a Christmas tree is shown in photos (8, 9 and 10). Finally, glue the Christmas tree to your New Year's card.
Option 4.
Do-it-yourself voluminous postcard for the New Year. Making this voluminous paper card is much easier than it might seem at first glance. First you will need to cut out 5 halves of circles of different sizes from green paper: large, smaller, even smaller, etc. Fold each half of the circle in half, then in half again, and in half again. Unfold each piece and form accordion folds (see photo).
Now insert one piece into another and glue them together along the three central folds.
For the trunk, cut out of paper Brown rectangle and also fold it like an accordion.
Glue your paper Christmas tree onto the card base. The easiest way to make snowflakes is from white paper using a hole punch or by drawing cotton swab.
Option 5.
A very beautiful DIY New Year's craft, accessible in complexity to a preschooler - a voluminous New Year's card "Christmas tree". The Christmas tree is made of rectangular strips of paper folded like an accordion. But there is one nuance here. If you look closely at the photo, you will see that the tiers of the Christmas tree are made of strips of paper of different widths: the ones at the bottom are the widest, the closer to the top the narrower. In addition, the depth of the fold of the accordion is also different. The bottom strips of paper are folded into an accordion with a large "step". The higher you go to the top, the shallower the bend depth.
Here are two more voluminous postcards with a New Year tree made from a triangular-shaped sheet of paper folded like an accordion. Simple and tasteful!
Option 6.
Another voluminous New Year's card. Again, this New Year's craft for children is attractive not only in appearance, but also in its ease of manufacture.
To make such a New Year's card with your own hands, print out the templates (template-1 and template-2) on two sheets of cardboard or thick paper and use the detailed instructions from the photographs below. It would be better if there were sheets of cardboard different color.
Finally, decorate the Christmas tree to your liking. The voluminous New Year's card is ready! 
Option 7.
Origami Christmas tree. We invite you to make a three-dimensional New Year's card decorated with a Christmas tree made of paper made using the origami technique. To make the card look more elegant and festive, choose more beautiful paper for your New Year tree. Special paper for scrapbooking is well suited for this DIY New Year's craft. By the way, making such an origami Christmas tree is much easier than it seems at first glance. For one origami Christmas tree you will need 4-5 square sheets of paper of different sizes.

3. DIY New Year cards (“New Year’s balls”)
Do-it-yourself New Year's cards with images of New Year's balls look good. The New Year's applique "Christmas balls" can be made from bright paper and decorated with ribbons.
Beautiful New Year's balls are made from colored strips of paper. Cut an unnecessary glossy magazine (advertising brochure) into thin strips and stick them on a white sheet of paper. After this, cut out circles of different sizes from the resulting striped paper. Decorate your New Year's card with them.
New Year's balls can be made not only from paper, but also from buttons.
Instead of buttons, you can use purchased decorative rhinestones.

And from a handprint you can make a New Year's card with Santa Claus or funny snowmen.

3. Attach a piece of paper. Your DIY New Year's card is ready!
4. Volumetric postcard on New Year DIY "Snowman"
Separately, I would like to talk about this original, voluminous postcard for the New Year. Making such a paper snowman is very simple. Even a preschooler can cope with the task. You need to cut out three circles of different sizes from thick white paper. It is advisable to shade the edges of the circles so that they stand out better against each other. This can be done using crushed pencil lead or eye shadow. Also cut out a scarf, pens, a carrot nose, eyes and buttons from colored paper. Glue all the parts of the snowman sequentially onto the blank of your New Year's card.

In stores today you can find New Year's cards for every taste. But the editors website believes that homemade ones are much warmer. After all, when we make something for someone with our own hands, we put our love into it.
Below we have collected ideas for beautiful, original and, most importantly, “quick” New Year’s cards, the creation of which does not require any rare materials - beautiful paper, cardboard, and colorful ribbons and buttons lying around the house.
Volumetric Christmas trees
Volumetric Christmas trees made of white and colored paper are so simple to make that you can make them at the last moment. Read more on the Bog&ide blog.
Making 3D Christmas trees even faster. All you need is a ruler, sharp scissors and cardboard. This blog shows you how to cut them.
Penguin
We really liked this penguin, well thought out. You will need black and white cardstock (or White paper), a triangle made of orange paper and 2 miniature snowflakes, which we all know how to cut out. The eyes are, of course, the highlight of the postcard, and you will have to look for them at a hobby store (or tear them off from an unnecessary children's toy, with the consent of the children, of course).
Gifts
This cute and simple card requires 2 sheets of cardstock, a ruler, scissors and glue. And also pieces of wrapping paper that you have left over from gift wrapping, ribbon and ribbon. The manufacturing principle is very simple, but for those who want more details, we recommend taking a look at this blog.
Santa Claus
A friendly Father Frost (or Santa Claus) can be made in just half an hour. The red hat and pink face are strips of paper pasted onto a card or gift bag. The fur of the hat and the beard are obtained like this: you need to take drawing paper and simply tear off strips of the desired shape to get uneven edges. Place on the card over the red and pink stripes. And then draw two squiggles - a mouth and a nose - and two dots - eyes.
Simple drawings
An irresistible idea in its elegance is to draw Christmas balls with patterns with a black gel pen. The main thing here is to draw the correct circles and mark the lines for the patterns. Everything else won't be difficult - stripes and squiggles that you draw when you're bored.
The same principle that underlies the postcard with black and white balloons. Simple silhouettes, painted with simple patterns, this time in color - best done with felt-tip pens. Warm and very cute.
Many, many different Christmas trees
A couple more ideas from the Bog&ide blog. For the first, you will need decorative tape or colored cardboard (with or without glitter - now you can easily buy these at an office supply store or in hobby stores). For the second - elegant straws for drinks and good glue.
Here you will need paper or cardboard with a pattern left over from children's crafts, or wrapping for gifts. The Christmas trees are sewn in the center - this is not at all necessary, you can glue them on. But if you really want to, you first need to make holes with a thick needle along a ruler, and then sew with thread in 2 rows - up and down, so that there are no gaps left. Draw a snowball with white gouache.
Laconic and stylish idea- a grove of Christmas trees, one of which is glued to foam double-sided tape (and therefore rises above the rest) and decorated with a star.
This card requires 4 or 3 layers of cardboard (you can do without the red one). You can use paper rather than cardboard as a color layer. In the top, white one, cut out a Christmas tree (a stationery knife will do this well) and glue it with double-sided tape for volume.
A round dance of Christmas trees made from various leftover cardboard, scrapbooking paper, and wrapping paper, tied with a simple ribbon and decorated with a button. Try playing with colors and textures - here you can find an incredible number of options using different colored ribbons, paper and even fabric.
Wonderful watercolor so in the spirit of New Year and Christmas! A simple watercolor sketch can be done by anyone, even those who last painted in school. First, you need to outline the patterns with a pencil, color them, and when dry, carefully erase the pencil sketches and complete the patterns with a felt-tip pen.
Winter landscape
For this postcard, it is better to use structured cardboard, but you can get by with regular, smooth cardboard - it will still turn out impressive. Using sharp scissors, cut out the snowy landscape and moon and paste it onto a black or dark blue background.
Another, white-green, option for a winter landscape that will take a little more time. If you find velvety cardboard (remember, back in school they made crafts out of this), it will be great; if not, you can simply color the Christmas trees with a felt-tip pen. Snow - polystyrene foam disassembled into peas. You can also use a hole punch to make circles out of cardboard and glue them to the card.
Hugging snowman
The author of the blog My kid craft made this snowman with her children. The snowman throws his arms up in joy when the card is opened. You can write your wishes inside. Children will be interested in making an applique (and painting their hands and hat), but for those who want everything to be done quickly, the blog has ready-made parts that can be printed on a color printer and simply glued together.
More snowmen
Snowmen peering inquisitively into the starry sky will look better if you can find a bright ribbon for a scarf.
For that postcard on the left, You need unpainted cardboard, white drawing paper and foam tape to glue the snowman with. Drifts are made simply: you need to tear off the drawing paper so that you get a ragged wavy edge. Fill it in with a blue pencil and blend it with anything, even with your finger or a piece of paper. Also tint the edges of the snowman for volume. For the second You will need buttons, a piece of fabric, eyes, glue and colored markers.
You will want to keep this card for a long time. All you need are circles made of cardboard, a nose and twigs made of colored paper. All this must be assembled using double-sided bulk tape. Draw eyes and buttons with black paint, and a snowball with white gouache or watercolor.
Balloons
Balls are one of the main symbols of the New Year and Christmas. These are made from velvety colored paper and ribbon. But balls are such a win-win option that you can allow yourself to fantasize: make balls from patterned paper, wrapping paper, fabric, lace, cut out from a newspaper or a glossy magazine. And you can simply draw the strings.
Another option is to stick paper with a pattern on the inside of the card, and cut out circles on the outside with a sharp stationery knife.
Volumetric balls
For each of these balls you will need 3-4 identical circles of different colors. Fold each one in half and glue the halves to each other, and the two outer halves to the paper. Another option is colored stars or Christmas trees.
Multi-colored balls
Wonderful translucent balls are obtained using a regular eraser on a pencil. It’s worth starting with a pencil to outline the outline of the ball. Then dip the eraser into the paint and leave marks on the paper. Fun and beautiful.
Cards with buttons
Bright buttons will add volume to the cards, and will also evoke subtle associations with childhood.
We bring to your attention a large number of examples of homemade cards for the New Year. All you need is various colored and wrapping paper, glue, scissors and all kinds of decorative details - holiday ribbons, rhinestones, buttons, beads, satin ribbons. When creating New Year's cards and gifts with your own hands, remember the most pleasant moments associated with the people for whom you want to prepare these wonderful and unique gifts, show your own imagination and be creative and have no doubt, your New Year's holidays will become the most unforgettable!

By the way, if you have your own ideas on this topic, be sure to write your thoughts below under this note. I’ll be happy to read it and maybe in future issues I’ll create something like this and post it on the blog.
So, let's get started and I want to immediately introduce you to a new masterpiece that amazed me from the first minute. I never thought that such a magnificent card could be easily and quickly made by yourself. Many thanks to the author, it turns out very cute and, moreover, you can decorate it differently each time, the main thing is to use a winter theme. You'll soon figure it out as you go along.
You can do this kind of work together with your child. age category, make a blank, or whatever you want to call it, the base, and allow all the characters and objects to be painted by your miracle and then glued on. So let's get down to business.
We will need:
- A4 paper or landscape sheet
- scrap paper, you can use colored paper
- glue stick
- colored markers or pencils
- scissors
- ruler
Stages:
1. Take a white sheet of paper and make marks on the right side with a ruler 2 cm from the edge. Draw a line as shown in the figure below. Then move the ruler to the left and make a mark of 11 cm.
2. So go through several places so that it is convenient after drawing the line.
3. This is how the markings turned out, don’t worry, soon everything will become clear what and why.
4. Use scissors to trim a 2cm edge.
5. And then cut along another long line so that you get two identical strips from one sheet.
6. Now divide one of the strips in half and bend it, then make another fold in half from the resulting half.
8. Where there were vertical lines, make a fold.
9. The result was nothing like an accordion.
10. Now let's formalize. From scrap paper, cut out geometric shapes slightly smaller than the main piece.
If you don’t have it in stock, you can use a regular colored one instead.
Or you can take options from the Internet, for example, take these and print them out.
11. Carefully glue the scrap paper sheets and remove excess glue with a napkin, if any.
12. Now the strip that you have already glued to the wide one, but this must be done in a special way.
13. So that the middle is not glued, this is where the fairy-tale characters will be located.
14. I suggest you draw them with a simple pencil, and then color them by hand.
15. You can also make the Christmas tree template yourself; bend a sheet of paper and draw the outline, and then cut it out.
16. Don't forget to color all the elements. If you are bad at drawing, or don’t want to do it, then you can print it already ready-made templates.
Take them from here, or find them yourself on the Internet. Make a printout and give it to the kids to color, they will be happy with this task.
Idea! Moreover, it can be Santa Claus and Snow Maiden, whatever you want.
17. Now we make a couple more blanks from scrap paper.
18. Fold them in such a way that vertical lines are shown.
19. And then we apply it to the main product and glue it.
20. We got these stands for gluing Christmas trees.
21. Place each tree and carefully glue it with glue.
22. Glue the snowman on the very main page, where you see gifts, you can write a congratulation or
Now I want to teach you how to make an easier souvenir in the form of a house. You need to fold the leaf in half and cut out four squares or rectangles to make a window.
Now open the blank and glue a sheet of colored or office paper on the inside, cut the edges with decorative scissors.
Take thicker paper, you can take cardboard, but not too thick, cut out a suitable triangle from it. This will be the symbol of the Christmas tree. Then wrap it with thread and secure the ends with glue.
All that remains is to build a surprise for the forest beauty, also make this masterpiece out of paper, you can use ribbons for the bow.
And what ended up happening is incredibly cute and cool, and most importantly, the kids are delighted. How do you like this idea?
Also cover the outside of the window and draw decorations.
Now I propose to turn to the origami technique and make another craft in the form of a green Christmas tree made of paper and cardboard. To begin, cut out 6 pieces of colored paper geometric shapes in the form of squares. Dimensions shown in the picture.
Fold a yellow sheet of cardboard in half, this will be the basis of the future postcard.
It is on this that you stick all the triangles, as if you were inserting each one into each other. Start from the top, that is, from the smallest triangle. And the final stage - glue the star and decorate it with rhinestones or sparkles. Good luck!
You can do something like this, you can also do it this way, the applique is a little more complicated, but the postcard turns out even more voluminous.
You can even take ordinary coloring books and easily make a greeting work out of them. This is a great option for little ones.
You may also want to use the following stencil for a card; you will need to cut out a Christmas tree along the outline, and give your child the task of decorating with rhinestones.
Like this unusual option work from circles:
I’m also giving you this sketch as a hint; it will also turn out to be a nice piece of work.

How to make New Year cards with your own hands
New Year card with yellow pig for New Year 2019
For the New Year 2019, we invite you to make a custom card with your own hands. It is unusual in that it depicts the cute face of a pig, and the animal is yellow color. You shouldn’t be surprised by this turn, because a new era is coming, albeit a short one - the year of the yellow pig.
Very soon, man's good friend, the devoted and cheerful dog will be replaced by a wise and generous pig. At all times, this animal has been known as an indicator of wealth; it is not for nothing that piggy banks are depicted in the shape of a pig. We will not depict the entire figure on cardboard, but will only make its head. The round piece will become the central one.
What you need to prepare to complete the craft:
- thick cardboard of any color;
- yellow plasticine;
- additionally other colors to complete all parts of the animal’s face, for New Year's decoration, for the inscription.
Prepare green (or another color) cardboard for the base; you can cut the edges round. And also knead the yellow plasticine in your hands. Of course, the pig can be made more traditional - pink, but for a real symbol yellow is more suitable.
Place the yellow ball in the center of the cardboard and press firmly with your palm. Next, press down with your fingers over the entire surface and smooth out. Thus, a round cake will appear in front of you, which will subsequently become the pig’s head. You will not only deform the ball to the desired round shape, but also press the main part to the base.
Start turning the cake into the head of the planned animal. For now, use the same yellow plasticine. Attach a small round piece to later create a patch. Make pointed ears and attach them to the top of the head
Take a thin red stripe and stick it under the snout as a smiling mouth. Use pink dots to add cheeks and nostrils.
Add eyes. Pigs are usually depicted as having blue eyes. We can do this too. Use small white and blue dots. Glue our eyebrows above the eyes.
Now you need to decorate your craft so that it really looks like a New Year's one. It is not yet clear why such a copy is shown before us. Make lots of small plasticine beads of different colors to create garlands.
Bright tinsel sparkles under the ceiling in decorated halls and rooms. We also need to create a similar festive atmosphere.
Collect small balls into thin threads and attach them to the cardboard at the top. Make several different colored stripes.
And one more touch is the inscription “Happy New Year!” You can write it with a marker, but it is better to glue it, making all the letters from plasticine, so as not to disturb the overall ensemble. Stick the words on the top, bottom, or sides—any free space.
Also glue small balls, pressing each one onto the cardboard with your finger to imitate scatterings of confetti. Now we have before us a real New Year's card, from the canvas of which the smiling and positive face of a symbolic pig looks out.
Craft for the New Year with a Christmas tree made of ribbons
This lesson shows how to make a New Year's greeting card with your own hands together with the children. Its base will be cardboard, and the picture will depict a Christmas tree, or rather, its imitation - a green triangle, decorated with green and white satin ribbon, bright rhinestones on an adhesive base. If you liked this option for a New Year's gift, consider what is needed to make it and how to make it.
To complete the festive New Year's craft proposed in this lesson, the following were used:
- white and green cardboard;
- scissors;
- multi-colored strips of corrugated paper;
- glue;
- satin ribbon 0.5 cm wide, white and green;
- red round rhinestones;
- flower-shaped rhinestones - 1 piece for the top;
- foil;
- white lace;
- plastic bow with rhinestones;
- black pen;
- orange colored paper.
As you can see, the list of materials includes a lot of items, but there are no exclusive or expensive ones. In addition, some of them can be replaced altogether. For example, green and white cardboard will be needed to create a background and a triangular copy of the Christmas tree, but the colors may differ.
Strips of corrugated paper are needed to make a striped bright covering; fabric or ribbons will do instead; also, together with rhinestones, you can come up with another Christmas tree decoration, and so on. So, first of all, cut out 2 rectangles from green and white paper, and the size of the second piece should be slightly smaller than the first.
Slice corrugated paper stripes of arbitrary length and width. Cut out a few stars from foil (or candy wrapper).
Glue the strips onto the top layer - white cardboard. Create a fun, colorful finish by layering stripes lengthwise. Glue the ends of the strips at the back. Glue the entire structure onto green paper. The background for the postcard is ready.
Add a strip of white lace at the bottom, bringing the ends under the top layer of paper. Cut out a triangle for the Christmas tree from green cardstock.
Wrap a white ribbon randomly around the triangle (glue the ends at the back).
Then add green ribbon in the same way.
Glue the resulting Christmas tree in the center. Decorate with rhinestones and a bright top. Glue foil stars around the Christmas tree.
On a bright orange paper cutout, write “Happy New Year” with a pen and glue it below - under the lace, add a bow.
A bright, hand-made congratulation is ready.
IN modern world The 3D format is very popular. You can also apply it to a paper card. To do this, you just need to take a few decorative elements and glue them onto a white base.
The main decoration will be a paper figurine, for example, an angel. A similar image suitable for the New Year theme can be found in any magazine. Cut it out with scissors, and the central part of the craft is ready.
Materials:
- A5 paper – 1 sheet;
- sequins;
- silicone glue;
- paper figurine of an angel;
- double sided tape.
Manufacturing Instructions
Fold a piece of white paper in half. This can be a regular album sheet or cardboard for creativity.
Cut small pieces from double-sided tape. We glue them onto a paper base in the place where the angel is supposed to be located.
Remove the top protective layer from the pieces of tape.
Glue the paper figurine of an angel with double-sided tape.
Another piece of tape will be needed to attach the snowflake. We glue it on a free area of the sheet.
Cut out a small snowflake from plain white paper. It should have an empty middle. We apply it to the workpiece so that a piece of tape is in the central hole. Glue a sequin in the shape of a snowflake on top. This way both snowflakes will be fixed on the paper.
Using silicone glue we draw abstract stripes on paper.
We lay out sequins of different colors along the glue strips.
Glue single sequins onto the remaining empty areas of paper. We arrange them without a specific system or arrange them into patterns.
All decorative elements protrude above the surface of the paper. They are convex and have different thicknesses. Thanks to this, the craft as a whole turns out to be voluminous and unusual.
Plasticine flat image Christmas ball, pasted on cardboard, will look like a three-dimensional 3D New Year's card. Even using plasticine, the ball can be carefully decorated and made into interesting drawing, receive a unique gift or piece of holiday decor.
Before buying ready-made cards in the store, try making something yourself. The plasticine version can be made with children. You will have in your hands a wonderful souvenir, painted with your own hands.
To create a beautiful New Year's craft with a plasticine pattern, prepare:
- bright red cardboard;
- several pieces of plasticine of different sizes and colors to make the body of the ball itself and the tail, decor, bow, as well as a green Christmas tree branch on which this ball is attached;
- thin needle or stick.
It is the bright base in the form of thick cardboard that will set the character of the entire product. A beautiful ball against an expressive background will be emphasized favorably, will not get lost, but will sparkle with new colors, so take the brightest color from the set. To create a New Year's image in the form of a ball, knead several pieces of plasticine in your hands.
Mash the selected color in the largest quantity in your hands, make a round flat cake. Glue the Christmas ball onto cardboard as the body. At the top, glue a small loop with which the ball is attached to a spruce branch (it can be made from plasticine of a different color).
Pull a piece of blue plasticine into a thin thread, and make small peas from the white mass. All these details will be used to further decorate the ball. An interesting ornament will be created.
Glue a track of two blue plasticine threads in the center across the body of the ball. Place white balls in a row between them.
Pierce each small white dot with the point of a needle or stick to create an interesting visual effect.
Prepare an additional yellow sausage by pressing the segments at equal distances from each other with your fingers, making a zigzag. Glue 2 zigzag stripes at the top and bottom. Between the corners also glue white balls that remained from the previous operation.
A beautiful bright yellow bow will also fit perfectly into the overall ensemble. Make a decoration with loops and tails, glue it to the loop of the ball itself.
It is advisable to place a large central design so that there is still room at the top for a spruce branch. The ball should be suspended from it. Make an oblong green cake.
Glue at the top of the picture, adjacent to the top loop. Make needles on the Christmas tree using the same thin stick. Now the product really looks like a living, three-dimensional applique.
After the lesson, you will be convinced that making New Year's gifts with your own hands is much more interesting than just shopping around looking for ready-made products. And children will definitely like this work.
New Year card using scrapbooking technique
Your craft will turn out elegant and unusual if you buy designer paper and use it for needlework. Today on sale you can find all kinds of materials for creativity: foil, paper in the form of a leather texture, sheets with colored patterns and much more. And you also need to be prepared for the fact that when creating it you can use not only paper, but also other materials, for example, ribbons, rhinestones, bright floss threads, chains, etc.
A simple version of a postcard using the scrapbooking technique is presented in this lesson. What is needed to complete it? This is a limited list, but you can easily expand it.
The following materials are suitable for creating a New Year's card:
- designer cardboard, the texture of which resembles green leather;
- three types of designer paper with different patterns;
- cardboard with shiny foil coating;
- rhinestones of different sizes, but the same color and shape;
- thin green satin ribbon;
- Velcro sticker with New Year's inscription;
- small pebble for a bow.
Tools for working with paper:
- ruler;
- pencil;
- scissors;
- glue.
Regular colored paper or cardboard will also work, but foil and sheets that imitate leather look very interesting. From the prepared sheets you need to cut 2 layers of a rectangular shape, and then fold them together. You need to glue the rectangles on top of each other.
Make the foil as the bottom layer and the green leather as the top. Using a ruler and pencil, draw sketches of rectangles on the sheets, then cut them out along the contour. You need to make sure that the silver part peeks out from under the green textured part. The size of the rectangle of the bottom layer needs to be made a little larger (with starts on the sides of about 0.5 cm).
Glue flags onto the top green paper. These decorative items are often used to decorate halls, houses, shops, and apartments for the New Year holidays. Cut out 3 flags of different lengths from colored design paper with a pattern. Glue the parts as soon as possible, their length will gradually decrease.
Cut a strip from a thin green ribbon of satin texture, the length of which, with small starts, is equal to the width of the top green rectangle. Glue a straight satin line at the top (where the flags are located). Bring the ends back, after adding a drop of glue.
To avoid writing the “Happy New Year!” message yourself, buy a sheet of themed stickers. Take a suitable Velcro sticker and add it to the free space. Glue a bow with a pebble to the ribbon.
And the final sparkling touch is rhinestones. If they gradually decrease in size, then overall the craft will look stylish.
If creative inspiration strikes you, you can easily make beautiful gift to anyone close to the New Year. The main thing is to choose materials that will look elegant on their own.
Option with an elegant Christmas tree
How to make such a craft with a beautiful elegant Christmas tree step-by-step master class look .
With a plasticine snowflake
An interesting handmade postcard will become an unusual craft filled with positive energy. Unique products are a gift for any occasion. But I still want to stick to the given topic. For example, if we are talking about the New Year, then it is better to depict some kind of winter ornament or figures suitable for the holiday.
This master class shows a variation of a New Year's card made of plasticine with a picture of a snowflake. And this snowflake does not have to be white, as we are used to. If we make it green, it will look very much like a Christmas tree - the central object of a fabulous winter holiday.
Are you interested in this type of handicraft? Would you like to repeat this New Year's craft with a plasticine snowflake with children? This lesson is presented to help everyone. The central object of the application - a snowflake - can be made separately, if desired.
Materials needed for winter creativity:
- canvas-cardboard;
- mass for drawing - plasticine;
- decoration - rhinestones;
- a tool for drawing relief lines - a stack or a toothpick.
Since we planned to create a green snowflake - the central element of the postcard, we need to choose some kind of bright background that beautifully combines with this color. For example, red cardboard will do. It just needs to be cut from a large sheet.
It is also possible to use scrapbooking paper with a monotonous, unobtrusive pattern, a white base, or hand-decorated paper. A green snowflake must be complemented with some other color, for example white, to create a pattern on the figure.
Soften the green plasticine in your hands and press down on top. You can immediately press the mass with your palm to the surface in the central part. Now the resulting cake needs to be turned into a snowflake.
To begin, carefully cut out a star with 6 rays. Draw a sketch with the tip of a toothpick to get an even and beautiful result. Then cut off any excess along the indicated line, pressing harder.
Using the same tool or stack, make the rays of the snowflake sharper and more carved. Press down the plasticine in the right places in the same way.
Make a thin white pattern on the surface of the green blank. Glue a thin white thread along each ray and place the petals in the center in the shape of a flower.
Glue a sparkling crystal in the middle and press it tightly into the plasticine. Press each petal lengthwise with a toothpick.
Form the rays into small grains, pressing each one with a point.
Now write the congratulatory phrase “Happy New Year!” Since the image on the cardboard is plasticine, it is better to make the inscription from thin threads of bright color.
Add a sparkling effect by distributing small green pieces between the rays.
Postcard “Happy New Year!” ready, it turned out bright and thematic.
In winter, when there is frost and snowstorm outside, you want warmth and comfort. Everything should be warm and cozy at this time of year, including New Year’s crafts. Don't believe me? Then we offer you the idea of creating a beautiful New Year's card with a decor in the form of a mitten, which will undoubtedly cheer up the person who receives it during the holidays.
To make this “cozy” masterpiece you need: colored cardboard and colored paper, multi-colored cardboard (you can use bright paper for gift wrapping instead), bright threads, glue, scissors and a hole punch.
The first step is the foundation. For it we will use a sheet of white thick cardboard, folded in half. The interior decoration (the so-called “wishes field”) consists of two rectangles of colored paper, slightly smaller than the postcard itself.
We carefully glue them inside the product. On the outer front side we glue a rectangle of cardboard of the same size and shade.
On the back side of multi-colored cardboard (or gift wrapping paper) draw a mitten of the appropriate shape.
We seal its upper edge from the “wrong” side with a strip of cardboard and make a series of holes in it using a hole punch.
To decorate the mittens we will use threads. First you need to connect the threads from different spools into one and cut them into strips of 12-15 cm.
To attach the threads to the mitten, fold the strip in half, thread it through the hole and make a loop. This is how we decorate all the holes of the mitten.
Lubricate the back side of the mitten with glue ( Special attention We pay attention to the part where the threads are threaded) and glue it to the front part.
A beautiful postcard with mitten decor is ready. Warmth and comfort to you on winter days!
For many, New Year's cards have already gone digital. They are sent by email or using smartphones. But the paper version still retains its unique charm. If you want to surprise the recipient doubly, then a paper card, like New Year's gift, it is preferable to do it yourself.
