It’s an idea where you use the core of a tape roll to draw a face outline and then turn it into various animals.

It’s really fun to watch a single round shape transform into illustrations of different animals like a horse, sheep, monkey, and chicken.

You can use the circle as the full outline, or just use part of it.

Since you can’t erase unwanted lines if you start with a pen, begin by sketching in pencil and then trace over it with a pen afterward.

Cute for New Year’s cards too! Daruma-chan

Here’s an idea for New Year’s decorations, and since daruma dolls are also a common motif for New Year’s cards, why not use this idea to make a daruma-themed New Year’s card? Make a daruma out of construction paper and attach it to gold design paper along with some flowers.

Simply sticking that onto the front of the card will give it a festive feel.

However, if you’re attaching it to a New Year’s card, be sure to make the daruma as a flat piece.

Create the face with any expression you like, using stickers or pens.

Let’s incorporate the plum blossom—famous as a New Year’s flower—into your New Year’s card design.

Here’s a paper-cutting idea you can enjoy like a craft project.

Fold origami paper following the set steps, draw two curved lines, and cut along them with scissors.

Then slowly unfold the paper, and your plum blossom is complete.

There are only seven folds in total, and two of those are just to make crease lines.

It’s an idea that’s easy for children to make, so please give it a try.

Create plum blossoms in various sizes and colors to make a vibrant New Year’s card.

New Year’s Cards Made with Onions

Cut an onion in half, paint the cut surface with paint, and stamp it.

Use that as the outline, then draw a face with a pen to turn it into an animal illustration.

Even with the same onion, each cross-section is different, and the way the paint goes on will change the look of the stamp.

In the video, they also use a triangular stamp to depict a tiger, but by changing the shape of the ears, you can represent various animals.

If you stack the shapes to make a snowman, it would make a wintery New Year’s card.

Let your imagination grow and try creating a perfect New Year’s card design using an onion stamp.

Great for New Year’s cards too! Easy-to-use stamps

[New Year’s Cards 2024] Perfect for New Year’s cards too! Easy stamp-making 🎍 #preschoolcrafts #nurseryteacher #childcareideas #traineeNurseryTeacher #nurseryTeacherLife #withKids #tamponStamp #stampPlay #NewYearsCard #NewYearCraft

This is a New Year’s card featuring Mount Fuji made with construction paper and stamping.

It’s an easy project that kids can enjoy.

First, cut out the base of Mount Fuji from blue construction paper.

Cut it to postcard size, imagining a trapezoid shape.

Once cut, dab white paint onto a sponge dauber and stamp the upper area.

This creates the look of snow-capped Mount Fuji.

After the paint dries, glue it onto the postcard and draw the sun in the blank space to represent the first sunrise of the year.

Finally, write the year in Western numerals, and you’re done!
