DIY christmas cards easy | How to make christmas card | Christmas card ideas

A Christmas card that’s easy to make by simply pasting cut origami onto construction paper.

To make a Christmas tree, fold a piece of paper into a triangle and cut slits into it.

Next, apply glue to the tips where you made the cuts and fold them toward the center to complete the tree.

Once you stick it onto the construction paper, add star decorations and illustrations to finish it off.

If children are making it, be sure to help them with tricky tasks like cutting the slits.

It’s a stylish, three-dimensional card that matches the festive Christmas atmosphere.

Christmas cards made by painting with a toothbrush

[Craft Activity] Christmas Cards Made by Painting with a Toothbrush

How about making a Christmas card that creates a watercolor-like atmosphere? First, fold your prepared paper in half and make a slit.

By folding the slit section, you’ll create the base for a pop-up card.

Use a toothbrush dipped in paint to add color to the card.

The key is to pay attention to the direction you brush and the pressure you apply.

Finally, add decorations with items like cotton swabs, and it’s complete.

When you open the card, an artistic image pops out.

It’s also a great idea to have children work on drawing the illustrations.

Let’s make a standing Christmas card that showcases children’s free ideas.

Next, decorate with items like sequins and then attach them to the construction paper.

Place the card in an envelope made from new construction paper to finish.

Swirling Snowman Card

[How to Make] Easy! Spinning Snowman Card [Interactive/Pop-up Card]

This is a pop-up card featuring a snowman with a fun, twirling mechanism.

When you see the finished piece, you might worry, “Can I really make this?” but the method is surprisingly simple! All you need are three circular papers cut to different sizes, decorative parts to create the snowman’s face like a hat and eyes, and—most importantly for this mechanism—brads.

Brads, also known as split pins, are fasteners that go through a hole; you spread the prongs to secure two pieces together.

Stack the differently sized circles and fasten them with a brad, and the twirling pop-up section is complete.

After that, design the snowman’s face however you like.

Since you’ll need to make holes with an awl or a punch to insert the brads, please have an adult handle that part.

A Christmas card with a beautiful snowy landscape

With a sponge?! Easy Christmas card for anyone, Part 2

This is a Christmas card featuring a magical snowy scene.

First, fold a sheet of drawing paper in half, open it again, then paint a circle in the center of the right side with acrylic paint and close it.

Next, use a sponge dipped in white paint to create an illustration that looks like falling snow.

The trick is to leave some gaps at the top and to fill in the bottom more densely.

Since you can make it using a sponge, children can work on it safely and easily.

Finally, cut out the circle you painted earlier so that the pattern shows just a little, and you’re done.

How about making a card that almost lets you feel the soft texture of snow?

Christmas card ideas made with handprints and footprints

[Handprint & Footprint Art] Christmas Card | Child’s Growth Keepsake | Gift for Grandparents |

I think many children send Christmas cards to their grandparents.

But quite a few may be unsure what design to choose.

In that case, Christmas cards made with handprints and footprints are recommended.

This involves drawing illustrations using handprints and footprints.

The idea that their own handprints or footprints can become a picture makes it a project kids will love.

If you try it, don’t forget to take precautions against messes—like laying a plastic sheet on the floor.
