With the help of a white cardboard compass, we make three circles of different diameters.
Line the edges with paint. A sheet of blue cardboard must be cut with curly scissors. Glue the largest circle on the blue background, then the smaller one.
We make a scarf from two strips of colored paper and glue it on a white circle, glue the smallest white circle on top.
Draw the arms and eyes with a black felt-tip pen. If there is a figured hole punch with the shape of a snowflake, you can make them to decorate the postcard.

To make a blank for a New Year's card 2020, you need to take a sheet of pastel paper. We cut out a rectangle of 29 * 13 cm in size from it. We fold the sheet as shown in the diagram.
On the inside, apply a little paint to get a light spray.
From corrugated cardboard we cut out 4 halves of the Christmas tree of the same size: 2 left, 2 right halves. Also cut out the ball.
Let's make another rectangle measuring 13 * 2 cm.
We take paper and make a rectangle 12 * 9 cm.

Using different colors of paper, you can make bright and beautiful New Year cards.
Bright New Year's cards can be obtained using colored paper. Such a card can be given as a keepsake or left as a decoration to create a festive atmosphere.
A sheet of colored cardboard, which we take as a basis, is folded in half. We glue a green triangle on top and another triangle of a small brown color. So we get a tree. Cut out circles of different sizes from colored paper. If there is a figured hole punch, you can make snowflakes.
All the figures need to be glued to the Christmas tree, decorate it with beads, rhinestones, sparkles. You can use a cord for decoration, and also glue a sheet of white paper to write congratulations there.
A beautiful card doesn't have to be hard to make. You can make it using the minimalist technique, but if you come up with an original decor, then such a card can become an unusual gift and souvenir.
If you make an origami-style Christmas tree, then you don’t have to invent anything special for the design of a New Year’s card. To make such a Christmas tree, you will have to be patient, because it is a little more difficult than a simple application of colored paper.
We make 5 squares: 10 cm, 9 cm, 7.5 cm, 6.5 cm, 5.5 cm.
Consider a master class on how to make not just a New Year's card with your own hands, but a card with an original design.
Take the largest square. It is necessary to fold it so that a triangle is obtained. Expand the square and make a triangle in the opposite direction. Now we make a three-dimensional triangle
Bend one of the sides as shown in Figure 5)
Also fold the triangle on the other side. So we get a module for the Christmas tree. In the same way, we make modules from the rest of the parts. We begin to collect a Christmas tree based on a postcard from above. Glue the top part onto double-sided tape, and then lower and lower. Such an original Christmas tree can decorate any postcard Happy New Year 2020.
For children, the most difficult moment is the time of waiting for the New Year holidays. They want to feel the magic, receive gifts, and of course they are happy to meet Santa Claus. Every year on the eve of Christmas, all children write letters to Santa to ask for gifts and promise good behavior. To make it less tiring for children to wait for the new year, you can come up with an exciting task for them. It can be a simple but interesting hobby - to make New Year's cards to Santa Claus with your own hands.
Using decorative materials, bright cardboard and colored paper, you can make a beautiful application in the form of Santa Claus on a postcard.
It will be funny to look at the figure of Santa Claus if you stick the head of a photograph of a child instead of a face.
Funny children's cards can be with the image of a Christmas tree or some kind of animal.
Paints can help the kid draw a postcard to Santa Claus for the new year.
To write a letter to Santa Claus, it is not enough just to take a sheet of white paper. An elegant postcard can be made from colored paper. And you can print the blanks and invite the child to simply stick them on the base.
Making a postcard with a deer is not at all difficult. Cut out a deer figurine from colored paper. Fold a sheet of cardboard for the base in half. Cut out a circle from a newspaper or magazine. Glue it to the center of the base, on the outside. We cut out a skirt from openwork decorative napkins - we need three pieces. We glue the napkins, covering the circle from the newspaper, and then glue the deer on top of it. Don't forget to make the deer a red nose.
Ready-made templates of individual parts will help to make a postcard faster and easier. We will print, cut out, paint, and the finished part will decorate your new New Year's card.
It is not difficult to make a beautiful memorable gift for the New Year to your friends and it is not necessary to spend a lot of money for this. Scrapbooking New Year's cards are now at a premium. There are no definite patterns here, you can create as your imagination allows. But for beginners, there are many master classes that will help you understand the process and also push your ideas.
You should not take on the most difficult option for crafting scrapbooking cards, although they look very attractive. You can start with a simple instance.
From cardboard, you need to cut a rectangle, which will become the basis of the postcard. Cut out the shape a little smaller than the previous one. Glue the second piece to the first with tape. Cut out a few more squares and rectangles. We glue all the details on top of the workpiece. With a pencil, draw a triangle that will serve as a Christmas tree. Glue the bead onto this triangle with hot glue. We will decorate the card with a ribbon, having previously tied a bow.
An original postcard using the scrap technique can be obtained if you make the base in the shape of a mitten.
To make it, you can use your hand by circling it around the edges, or download a template.
Scrapbooking works are distinguished by the fact that thick paper of bright colors is used for the manufacture of postcards; it can also be worn with some kind of pattern. The rest depends only on the imagination, so each work will be different from the other.
A simple postcard, which in terms of technique borders on scrap and appliqué, is done quite quickly and is within the power of children.
To make it, you need to fold the sheet in half. Draw a line at the top of the card. Using a compass, cut out a ball from bright paper. Glue the ball to the side of the card, and draw a line that will play the rope. It can be decorated with beads or rhinestones.
It is quite reasonable that most of the cards for the new year bear the image of a Christmas tree. This green beauty is able to make a simple New Year's card just by her presence.
Christmas trees on a postcard can be different in execution. You can cut out Christmas trees in the form of a simple triangle. To make the postcard more voluminous, you can stick the Christmas tree on the base using bulky double-sided tape.
Children love to draw with their fingers. Therefore, this version of the postcard will be suitable for children in kindergarten but you can do it at home too.
Everyone knows that the development of fine motor skills is important for children.
Therefore, the design of the postcard can be supplemented with buttons, cotton pads and other elements.
Children's New Year's cards in kindergarten have long become an indispensable part of the educational process. Each child tries to give his hand-made postcard for the new year to his parents.
Fold the base sheet in half. To make the Christmas tree look spectacular, take dark-colored cardboard for the base.
Napkins need to be unfolded and cut into strips 7-8 cm wide. The length of the strip should be from 3 to 10 cm. For one Christmas tree, we need about 8-9 such strips.
We bend strips of napkins in the middle, having previously made an accordion.
Glue the strips of napkins inside the workpiece fold to fold.
Do not use a lot of PVA glue so that the napkins do not get wet.
Expand the fan obtained from the strips of napkins. Glue decor on them - it can be sequins, beads, beads and other decor.
Improvised material and even broken pencils can become the main material for creating a beautiful New Year's card.
New Year's card to school: how to make it in elementary grades
The school often hosts DIY contests. New Year's cards can also become a subject for competition. Every child wants to become a winner, so they come up with original designs for cards for the new year. With your own hands, you can make such a craft for a brocade of hours, but it can become the winner of any exhibition at school.
Since the postcard will be in the shape of a house, you need to cut a piece of cardboard. It will have a base of 9 cm. We draw a trapezoid, and then draw a triangle from the wide part of the figure.
Remove the top layer of thin paper from the corrugated board. Walk along the edges of the house with white paint. Two ice cream sticks will come in handy for the next step: making the roof. Cut out the center piece from the lace doily. Glue the outer part to the house. You can put beautiful cotton lace under the sticks.
Wine corks will come in handy to make an imitation of logs on the sides of the house. Next, you only need to decorate the house as you wish with the materials that you have at home.
Panoramic postcards look original and they are not as difficult to make as it seems.
The template is transferred to a sheet of A4 paper. You only need to cut solid lines.
On the dotted lines, you need to fold the workpiece.
You can cut out a Christmas tree from colored paper, thin cardboard and scrapbooking paper.
Another option that can be an original gift is a postcard in the style of minimalism.
Draw a triangle on the front of the card.
Stepping back 1 cm on each side, draw lines. We get rhombuses. Using a knife or carving tool, cut the strips. The corners can be bent.
Inside you can stick paper of a different color.
Postcards with a substrate look beautiful.
We take the cardboard for the base, fold it in half. In the middle of one half, which will play the front part, draw a circle with a compass and cut it out.
Cut out a circle from cardboard of a contrasting color, which will be 1 cm larger in diameter than what was cut out. On this circle we will glue the decor - beads, rhinestones, pebbles - everything that can be found at home.
Along the circumference, on the inside of the front part, we glue a volumetric double-sided tape, on which we attach a circle with a decor.
According to the model, you can make a voluminous New Year's card with your own hands.
We make the basis of our voluminous postcard. To do this, fold a sheet of cardboard in half. From the same sheet of cardboard, cut out strips 1.5 cm wide and fold them in half. The ends of the strips are folded at different levels to make birds. Place them inside the postcard by gluing.
We cut out three circles of different sizes from white cardboard and glue them, creating a snowman.
With curly scissors, you can process the edges of triangles previously cut out of colored cardboard. They will play the role of Christmas trees on New Year's cards.
Decorate the Christmas tree with snowflakes.
We glue our figures of Christmas trees and a snowman to the strips.
Without what it is impossible to imagine a Christmas tree? Of course, without garlands and balls.
Therefore, it would be quite reasonable to make a postcard decorated with balloons.
First, we make a base from a sheet of cardboard.
We fold the circles in half and collect a ball of three circles, folding them inward - one into one.
Fasten the balls together in a convenient way and attach to a postcard. Don't forget to draw the strings that hold the balloons.
Volumetric cards include quilling postcards. Small children will not cope with this task, but for older children this task will be very interesting.
We make cuts on the green stripes. These strips must be wound on a toothpick, creating several skeins.
We fix the bottom of the skein with glue and straighten the fringe. So we get 3D balls.
Glue these balls on cardboard in the form of a Christmas tree. Decorate as you wish
There are a large number of options for postcards using the quilling technique. This is a great field for fantasy.
This year we promise to give us a lot of interesting and impressive. The Rat is famous for its talents and desire for success. Each zodiac sign has its own horoscope for the upcoming year of the white rat. Therefore, it would be time to think about creating beautiful and original postcards for the new year 2020. If you want to appease the hostess of the new year, then it's time to make a postcard with the image of a rat.
The easiest option is to cut out the shape of a rat from colored paper or cardboard.
To make a ponytail, take a piece of thread and attach it to a hole that you can make with a hole punch.
Another option for a funny rat can be made.
A paper mouse cut out can be attached to the base of a postcard.

The New Year is just around the corner, many of us buy gifts for relatives and friends, decorate the house and bake birthday cakes.
As a rule, we remember one thing at the last moment - to send a New Year's card. As a result, at the last minute we rack our brains to come up with such a thing, and where to get a creative idea.
To save you time and energy, we've come up with 50 great New Year's card design concepts to inspire you to create an original greeting.
So let's see.
This holiday card is somewhat unconventional. She doesn't stick to the standard Christmas red and green color palette, but uses blue and pink instead. There is not even a festive theme here, instead - only faint hints. Fresh and unexpected.
Elegant handwritten font along with cute children illustration. Children always decorate and enhance the holiday wish.
Cards like these are a good example of breaking up the standard New Year's greetings template. Illustrations and handwritten inscriptions are made in the same color palette, making up a series of congratulations. And at the same time, each of your surroundings can receive a unique postcard. A great way to let people know they have a special place in your life.
The simple yet unique graphics of this greeting card offer an interesting retro feel. The layering of red and blue paint creates contrast and helps break up the repeatability of the pattern.
Here the postcard is equipped with an interactive element - the use of a paper sleeve with a round hole. When you pick up a card, you see a festive themed drawing. And as soon as you pull it out of the envelope, the congratulation itself appears in front of you. A fun and unique way to convey a personal greeting.
It would seem a banal holiday card with a deer. But the intricate textured pattern and subtle white dots reminiscent of snow help balance the illustration and color background. Background gradient adds dimension
This card is truly unique. All the figures on it are photographs, but since they are paired, the composition is illustrative. All the characters are the same two people, which adds a special personal flavor to the postcard.
This design is extremely elegant. A thin pattern is used not only on a postcard, but also on an envelope. The contrast between the black postcard and the white envelope looks great. This congratulation is really sensual and exudes extra class.
To surprise someone, you do not need to create artsy illustrations at all. With fast and simple graphics, you can achieve a cool effect. Take a look: the simple graphic Santa Claus hat stands out against the background, while the strong shadow gives the drawing a three-dimensional look. The simplicity of the pattern is paired with a little more frilly lettering to help strike a balance.
Who doesn't love glitter on New Year's Eve? On this postcard there are cones made of beautiful golden foil. The muted background further enhances the simple yet vibrant illustration.
The holiday card features Santa Claus with his proverbial red bag full of presents. The inscription on the bag - "holiday mood" - conveys the main idea of the design.
Warm holiday wishes paired with detailed illustrations of cozy knitted pieces are the basis of this postcard. The use of some unusual illustrations along with winter greetings makes us associate with warm scarves and sweaters.
This postcard shows George - but not quite your typical Yeti. He is huge, has horns, and for some reason loves Christmas.
At first glance, this card does not look like a Christmas card. The color scheme is not red-green, symbols and images are also not festive. But that's what makes it unique. Simply adding the message "Merry Christmas" makes the design instantly themed.
The graphic circles on this postcard symbolize Christmas decoration balls. Visually, these elements are not so obvious, but paired with a banner of seasonal greetings, you immediately feel the festive spirit.
An example of a vintage Christmas classic. The beige color with red trim, subtle textures and typeface evoke a retro feel. Nostalgia makes congratulations truly deep and sensual, but at the same time light and cheerful.
Very funny, quirky and unexpected postcard. The colors are not at all festive, there is no New Year theme either. But, it is worth pulling the tongue - “Happy Holidays” appears, and the card immediately becomes festive. Such a congratulation is ideal for creative people or teams.
The design of this greeting would be great even if it used a simple black background. Adding winter themed illustrations to the background enhances the mood. The texture of branches and snow adds space to the postcard.
Here white and blue are used together to create interesting negative space effects. White snow seeps into the cold blue of the mountains, and at the same time looks like tinsel around the snow-covered trees.
This postcard uses industrial motifs in a very clever way. The design contains a whole phrase, and spins it, turning it into a joke at the end. The drawing has the general shape of a Christmas tree, which is crowned by a printer with a star. Very simple, but incredibly funny and effective.
The soft and vibrant colors used in this design bring your attention to the middle of the composition. White soft blurry silhouettes turn into feathers and snowflakes. They work together with beautiful color blocks to create a deep shape. As a result, the ornament looks three-dimensional.
Similar to the previous example, here the colors also create a nice background in the center of the composition. However, in this card, the background color forms the inscription "2016", while destroying the "2" and "6", making these numbers illegible. This allows the recipient to think of the message on their own.
Festive themed icons come together to form the iconic Christmas image, the Reindeer. You can clearly see each icon separately. To balance out the rather heavy, design-wise image, it is surrounded by round snowballs.
On this card, decorative embellishments are falling from greeting messages. Ornaments, despite the simple form, create a bright, festive spirit. The inclusion of triangular shapes and snowflakes gives the decorations extra charm.
This design uses texture to make the card look less flat. Very subtle, but very effective technique.
Do your friends celebrate Hanukkah? Then the idea to collect a bunch of cute little things in one illustration - the attributes of this holiday is just for you. And for those who do not celebrate this Jewish holiday, it will still be interesting to receive such a postcard as an informational and educational greeting.
A kitten that is tangled up in a festive garland will make anyone smile. The image itself is funny, but paired with the ironic phrase: “I can explain everything” next to the kitten, it simply sparkles with humor.
Flat Christmas themed icons decorate the background of this holiday greeting. Everything is here: from a Santa Claus hat to a birthday cake. These postcards will show your designer friend where to go creatively next year.
Here the congratulatory text is filled with silver. It is reflected in the light and symbolizes the hope that all plans will come true. The contrast with the yellowish golden paper offsets the silver of the letters.
A handwritten message adorns the back of this postcard. The unique personal touch makes it individual.
Unique hand-drawn technique. Everything, from the font to the images, is handmade and truly personalized. Of course, it would be much cooler to make many unique postcards for all friends and relatives with your own hands. But it’s more efficient to make one and multiply. Still, it will retain the handmade feeling, and you will not be awake at night, drawing postcards to countless people you know.
The outward inconsistency in the design of this postcard gives it a mathematical, scientific look. However, the letters, which at first glance seem like formulas, add up to a cheerful holiday greeting.
Here, photos of two clinking beer mugs transform beer foam into something festive. Thanks to image manipulation, the image of a Christmas tree appeared on the card, and the message inside the card adds to the mood.
A bright and cheerful snowman stands out against a patterned background. If the white text did not have red accents, then it would “melt” against the background and would not be so obvious. The red color helps to highlight and draw attention to the lettering.
This holiday card will be appreciated by many designers. To non-designers, it looks like a simple graphic Christmas tree. For those who are in the subject, it is clear - in fact, this is a pen tool, designed in the form of a Christmas tree. Great way to send best wishes colleague and entertain him at the same time.
An insert inside such a postcard allows people to create their own design with deer and trees. The card is not only cheerful, but will also serve as a kind of element of the New Year's decor in the house.
In today's technological world, paper postcards can generally be seen as an anachronism. Instead of sending a physically existing postcard, create a custom email greeting. This will not only allow you to send it to many people at the same time and without postage costs, but also save paper.
The design of the postcard illustrates the American tradition of Christmas pickles - a cucumber hung on a Christmas tree. The one who finds pickles hanging on the Christmas tree will have good luck in the coming year. A somewhat unusual and humorous choice of illustration for a greeting card.
The combination of a thin, italic typeface with a dense, sans-serif typeface provides good contrast. If only one font was used in this design, then it would dominate the composition. The combination we see in this design always works well, including on greeting cards.
Christmas and New Year is a holiday celebrated all over the world. Here is a design that includes traditional greetings in various languages. All of them are collected in the form of an ordinary strip, very conveniently interrupted by the image of a deer. The use of different types of fonts creates a peculiar texture.
Font consisting of solid stripes and striped parts. By adding something personal to a regular font, we make the recipient feel special.
The geometric shapes used in this design form a Christmas tree. Incredibly simple, but truly original. Green stripes also imitate needles - a great solution.
But this design gives a new meaning to warm wishes. The card itself is made from a thin sheet of wood, and you are encouraged to actually burn it to keep warm.
This special holiday card uses real cookies and powdered sugar. A fun twist, from boring graphics to a themed greeting. Especially if you want to congratulate partners who are somehow connected with the products.
Handwritten wishes give the cards an organic and joyful look. The inscriptions are made to fill the entire space, as a result of which they feel like a full-fledged illustration.
Here, the phrase stands out against the bluish-green background and speaks for itself, while the texture of the bottom of the background grounds and adds volume to the whole design.
Here Santa Claus looks very fun and interesting. Instead of showing off the red color of the suit, it blends into the background so that we see only isolated fragments. Even if you can’t see where everything ends and begins, your eyes still accurately recognize the image.
When sending a New Year's card, you don't have to be serious at all. This design can cheer up the recipient. A white sheep is paired with a wish that is written in a way that makes you imitate sheep bleating.
There are no inscriptions at all. Yes, they are not needed in this design. The nature of the painted Christmas decorations is quite complex and detailed. And subtle silver foil accents add a winter holiday vibe.
Before us is a wonderful interweaving of letters and illustrations. The words "joy", "love" and "peace" are intertwined to form a Christmas tree. The dot in 'J' is the star, and the subtle dotted accents work as a garland. All this gives the card something special.
