In stores today you can find New Year's cards for every taste. But I think 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.

Making 3D Christmas trees even faster. All you need is a ruler, sharp scissors and cardboard

Penguin

We really liked this penguin, well thought out. You will need black and white cardstock (or white paper), an orange paper triangle, and 2 miniature snowflakes, which we all know how to cut out. The eyes are, of course, the highlight of the postcard, and you’ll have to look for them at a hobby store (or tear them off from an unnecessary children’s toy, with the children’s consent, 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.

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 glued 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—the 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

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.

This is where patterned paper or cardboard left over from children's crafts or wrapping paper for gifts will come in handy. The Christmas trees are sewn in the center - this is not at all necessary, you can glue them. 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.

A laconic and stylish idea is 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 card 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 is 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. It will be interesting for children to make an applique (and paint their hands and cap),

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 glue the 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.

The main thing is to find buttons of interesting colors, but the rest is up to you to “hang” them on the Christmas tree, on a branch with cute owls, or on newspaper clouds.

What could be simpler and cuter than a button snowman? The second card will require more effort, but the result is worth it.

The tradition of giving cards on occasion of significant events and holidays dates back more than two centuries. Despite the fact that modern information technologies have entered our lives: mobile communications and the Internet, we still rejoice when we receive a colorful homemade New Year’s card as a gift from a loved one.

However, modern postcards look completely different from those we received twenty years ago. We no longer want to congratulate each other with the faceless products of the printing industry, which churned them out in unlimited quantities.

Boring standard cardboards were replaced by postcards, skillfully made on their own, into which the person who made them put a piece of his soul, warmth and care. One of our favorite holidays has always been the New Year: it is with it that we associate our dreams and hopes for a better future, and exchange gifts with people close to us.

A handmade card can be a pleasant addition to a gift. It is not at all difficult to make, since the materials for its manufacture (colored paper, cardboard, satin ribbons, bright shreds, beads, sequins, braid) can be found in every home. The task will become even easier if you purchase a special scrapbooking kit in the store (this is what the art of making postcards is called).

In addition to materials, we may need a figured hole punch, openwork or zigzag scissors, and a set of decorative stamps.

An original postcard for a man can be a pocket in which New Year's greetings are inserted. In recent years, a fashionable trend has emerged to necessarily link the congratulatory text with the patron saint of the coming year - one of the twelve animals of the Chinese horoscope.

Having found a suitable poem on the Internet, we add everything that we want to wish to our dear person and print the text on a home printer. Of course, for this we need a sheet of thick cardboard, the edges of which can be tinted with acrylic paints and decorated with ornaments using suitable stamps.

Even the simplest card with an applique, made by a child’s hands, will be a very expensive gift for his mother.

Give your baby a sheet of cardboard folded in half and a leaf of fern (or any dried plant whose leaves are shaped like a Christmas tree).

• We decorate the Christmas tree with ready-made sparkles or circles of confetti, which the child can independently make from colored foil or pages of a glossy magazine.
• Taking a thin brush and white gouache, you can depict snowflakes swirling around the Christmas tree.

A very young child can please his mother with a postcard decorated using purchased stickers. These stickers are sold in sets and come in the form of stars and various geometric shapes. Offer them to your child and help him make a simple Christmas tree applique.

Since ancient times, on New Year's Eve, people exchanged greeting cards or sent them to relatives by mail. Unfortunately, with the development of digital technologies, people have almost stopped giving each other postcards; as a last resort, they send a digital version by e-mail. But it’s so great to receive a real postcard, hold it in your hands and fill your heart with the warmth of attention. It’s especially nice if children give a New Year’s card, almost creating it with their own hands. A handmade postcard can create a New Year's mood and bring joy to the author and recipient.

There are many options for creating New Year's cards, let's look at a few step-by-step descriptions of making a wide variety of cards.

For the youngest children, we suggest creating a postcard with a bright (possibly multi-colored) garland of clear fingerprints. Or use a small handprint to create a funny Santa Claus.

Step 1. On any flat object that does not absorb paint, make a rectangular frame from insulating tape or tape to the size of the future card. You can use a baking sheet for these purposes.

Step 2. Apply an even layer of paint to your palm and use a cotton swab to create Santa Claus or any New Year’s design.

Step 3. Reprint the design onto the card by applying the card to the paint.

See video: DIY Christmas tree card using a child’s footprint or handprint.

Step 4. Decorate the Christmas tree with bright beads or buttons.

Even a small child can create a Christmas tree from bright store-bought stickers; multi-colored bright flat buttons can be used as decorations.

Older children can embroider a Christmas tree on thick cardboard; it is better to pierce the holes with an awl in advance.

It is very easy to create such a postcard if you embroider a triangle with a star on the top of the head and a small rectangle - the trunk.

A more complicated option is if you make holes opposite each other along the perimeter of the triangle, and then sew them with threads; use sequins for decoration.

You can embroider with threads whatever you want - a modest Christmas tree, a small deer and a sock with gifts.

Young children can also create an applique from a regular cypress or fern leaf and decorate it with beads, beads or sequins. The main thing is that an easy-to-make card will bring great joy to the baby and grandparent.

Step 1. Take colored, preferably green, paper and cut out rectangular strips. We cut out the rectangles in descending order, with the longest strip being wider than the others, and the short one narrower.

Step 2. Fold the cut strips like an accordion. We fold the smallest strip more often and the larger the strip, the more fold we make.

Step 3. Glue the Christmas tree onto a sheet of cardboard folded in half. Glue the Christmas tree inside the card, on the formed fold.

An easier option for creating a postcard is to fold a cut out green triangle into an accordion shape. Glue it onto cardboard and make a trunk and a star on the top of the head.

Draw a circle on paper, draw a diameter and cut out both semicircles. Fold the Christmas tree as in the photo and glue it. Decorate and sign the card.

Postcard created using the rainbow folding technique

The iris folding style or rainbow folding can reflect your original ideas for creating a New Year's gift. The end result is a very beautiful postcard with a twisting spiral effect.

Necessary materials:

• Cardboard (thick paper);
• Colored paper, three colors will be needed;
• Glue;
• Iris template (you can download and print it or build it yourself).

To create this postcard, you will need to build an iris template; it will be built on the basis of an isosceles triangle with a base 14 cm long and a height drawn to the base equal to 16 cm. Take a rotation step of 1 cm. The dimensions can be changed as desired.

Step 1. Cut strips from colored paper. We make the width of the strip twice as large as the pitch and add an allowance of up to 4 mm. Thus, for this postcard, we cut out strips with a width of 22-24 mm. Make the first strips a little wider, as they will have to cover the contours of the tree. You will need a lot of prepared strips, so cut them as you create the card.

Step 2. Fold the cut strips in half.

Step 3. Take brown paper and cut out 5 strips (preferably different shades of brown) measuring 35 by 20 mm. We also fold these strips in half.

Step 4. Draw the silhouette of the Christmas tree on thick cardboard and cut it out very carefully (you can use a stationery knife). We make an iris template or print a ready-made one.

Step 5. Attach the prepared template to the wrong side of the cardboard using paper clips. It's okay if the silhouette of the tree is larger than the template. Next we will work from the wrong side.

Step 6. Fill the barrel. We begin to glue the prepared brown strips. To do this, lubricate the strip on the right side of the slot with glue and glue it so that the fold of the cut strip falls on the line of the template. Next, grease the top and bottom of the cardboard as well as the first strip and glue the second strip.

Step 8. Glue the largest strip of the first color at the beginning of the template, try to ensure that the fold coincides with the line on the template.

Step 9: Glue a second large strip of a second color on the opposite side of the template.

Step 10: Glue the next large strip of the third color along the bottom edge of the template.

Step 11: Very carefully glue the next strip of the first color next to the first strip of the same color. Use glue very carefully, only placing small dots.

Step 12. Glue a strip of the second color along the template line, carefully aligning it so that the fold coincides with the line.

Step 14. Turn the card over and, if desired, decorate the resulting Christmas tree. Sign it and you can give an excellent New Year's gift made by yourself.

For greater clarity, also watch the video; although it is in English, the essence can be understood without words: iris folding tutorial papermart.

The name of this technique, iris folding, can be translated as “rainbow folding.” The design is filled with thin paper strips, which, overlapping each other at a certain angle, create an interesting twisting spiral effect. To make a Christmas tree you will need a sheet of colored cardboard or thick paper, thin colored paper of three different colors (it can be plain or variegated), iris -a template based on a triangle, which you can build yourself or print a ready-made one. For gluing, use a glue stick.

First, get acquainted with the technique of constructing an iris template. For this work, the template is built on the basis of a triangle with a base of 14 cm and a height of 16 cm. The step is 1 cm. These dimensions can be changed at your discretion.

1. Cut strips of paper in three colors. The width of the strip should be twice the pitch, plus an allowance of 2-4 mm. For our step, the width of the strip is 22-24 mm. The very first stripes should be a little wider, because they cover the outer contours of the Christmas tree. It is difficult to immediately calculate how many stripes are needed. It is better to cut them while doing the work.
   
2. Fold each strip in half lengthwise.
   
3. Cut out five strips for the trunk of different shades measuring 35x20 mm. Fold them in half.
   
4. Draw the silhouette of a Christmas tree on cardboard. Carefully cut it out using a utility knife or scissors. Draw or print an iris template.
   
5. Place the cardboard on the template with the wrong side out. The cut silhouette may be slightly larger than the template. Secure the template, for example, with paper clips. All work will be done from the inside out.
   
6. Do the barrel first. Apply a little glue to the area of ​​cardboard around the slot on the right side. Glue the first strip. The fold line on the strip should be located along the line on the template. To glue the second strip, you can coat the top, bottom and previous strip of cardboard with glue. To prevent the strips from opening, they can be slightly glued in some places. Sometimes this technique does not use glue, but small pieces of tape that secure the strips along the edges.
   
7. Fill the entire trunk with stripes.
   
8. Take the longest and widest strip. First, just put it to work. The fold line should be located along the first line of the iris template. If the strip is too long, cut it. Glue the strip by smearing a little glue on the cardboard along the edges of the slot.
   
9. Glue a strip of a different color so that it matches the rightmost line of the template.
   
10. Glue the third strip below along the bottom border of the template.
    
11. Prepare the next strip of the first color. First attach, measure the desired length, cut, then glue. Apply glue not to the strip, but to the gluing areas! Use a little glue, just so that the strip “sticks.”
    
12. Glue the second strip of the second color, aligning it with the next line of the template.
    
13. Glue a second strip of the third color along the next line. Continue gluing in the same order. Strictly clockwise, strictly alternating the selected colors. Each time the stripes will become shorter and shorter. In the end, small scraps cut off at the very beginning will be used. When there is a small empty triangle left at the end, cover it with a piece of paper in one of three colors.
    

Now you can turn the work over and admire the result. You can glue garlands and decorate the Christmas tree as you wish. We completed these and other Christmas trees at the master class on December 13, 2007 in about one hour. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

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 a child of any age category, make a blank or whatever you call it the base, and let your child paint all the characters and objects and then glue them 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 leaves 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 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. Attach each Christmas 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 geometric shapes in the form of squares from colored paper. 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, decorate 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.

• scrap paper
• felt-tip pens
• PVA glue

Stages:

First of all, cut out rectangles of different lengths from scrap paper; choose the size yourself.

Then twist each piece on a simple pencil or thick stick to form a tube. Glue it together.

Thus, you should have 12 tubes of different lengths. Which now have to be glued together, starting from the longest and moving to the shortest.

Can you guess what will happen? Of course, a Christmas tree, which you glue onto cardboard folded in half. Instead of an asterisk, use a button or something else that you can find from scrap materials. Even a bow will do.

• cardboard
• scissors
• double sided tape
• Styrofoam

Fold the cardboard in half, but cut out three circles of different diameters from white paper. Draw blue stripes along the contour to make it look brighter and match the background of the workpiece.
