have you always wanted to make your own Christmas cards without knowing how to get started? here are some simple<br />
instructions that will get you finished in no-time.<br />
For this card you will need:<br />
•Thick white paper<br />
•Yellow paper<br />
•Green highlighter pen<br />
•Red fineliner pen<br />
•Star shaped hole puncher<br />
•Glue<br />
Use the green pen to draw a Christmas<br />
tree. Cut out a star from the yellow paper<br />
with the puncher and stick it on top of the<br />
Christmas tree. If you do not have a star shaped<br />
hole puncher, use a sticker instead. Draw<br />
some dots on the Christmas tree to resemble<br />
Christmas baubles. Finally write your<br />
Christmas greetings.<br />

Use the silver<br />
pen and ruler to<br />
draw three vertical<br />
lines, about<br />
1 cm apart, on<br />
the left side of<br />
the card.<br />
Cut out some<br />
white and silver<br />
hearts with the<br />
heart shaped<br />
puncher and<br />
stick them to<br />
the silver lines,<br />
in an optional<br />
pattern.<br />
Cut out a square<br />
from the white<br />
paper and stick<br />
it to the middle<br />
of the card. Cut<br />
out a slightly<br />
smaller square<br />
from the lacelike<br />
fabric and<br />
stick it on top<br />
of the white<br />
square. Finally, cut out an triangle from the<br />
white paper (it is supposed to look like a<br />
Christmas tree) and stick it to the fabric.<br />
Now you can surprise your grandparents<br />
with homemade Christmas<br />
cards. There are lots of ways to vary<br />
the design according to your own<br />
taste. Piece of cake!<br />

Use the regular<br />
hole puncher to<br />
make “dots” and<br />
stick them to the<br />
tree to resemble<br />
Christmas baubles.<br />
Finally, write your<br />
Christmas greetings.<br />
Now you can surprise your boyfriend/girlfriend<br />
with a personal Christmas card, I can<br />
assure you that it will be much appreciated.<br />
Also, if you use materials you already have at<br />
home, like coloured pages from a magazine,<br />
it will keep the costs down.<br />
