I come with gifts, shine with bright lights,
Smart, funny, for the New Year I am the main one. (Christmas tree)

There was a Christmas tree in the snow -
Green bangs,
Resinous,
Healthy,
One and a half meter.
An event has occurred
One winter day:
The forester decided to cut it down! -
So it seemed to her.
She was seen
Was surrounded ...
And only late in the evening
She came to herself.
What a strange feeling!
Fear disappeared somewhere ...
Glass lanterns
Are burning in her branches.
Decorations sparkle -
What a smart look!
At the same time, without a doubt,
She stands in the forest.
Not felled! Whole!
Beautiful and strong! ..
Who saved her, who dressed her up?
Forester's son!
Mikhalkov Sergey

It is customary to give postcards for all holidays marked and not marked on the calendar. This applies to large religious holidays such as Easter or personal and small ones such as a day of acquaintance or a big purchase. All memorable dates need postcards and New Year is no exception. As you know, one cannot buy something made directly by human hands in a store and one cannot find it from another. Everything is unique.

We invite you to please and surprise your friends and acquaintances with New Year's cards. And to this we attach a selection of ideas for inspiration on the theme of New Year's cards.

Idea number 1. Christmas card with a Christmas tree in a skirt

This is a three-dimensional postcard. If you have planned to write a wish and then print it on a printer, then this should be done before decorating.

So, what you need to create a corrugated paper herringbone card:
2. Corrugated paper.
3. Scissors.
5. Double-sided tape and / or PVA glue.
6. A simple pencil.

Let's start by preparing the base for the postcard. To do this, take cardboard or thick paper, fold it in half. Basically a standard postcard move. Further, on one of the halves, make an approximate sketch of the poor Christmas tree. This can be done with a couple of lines.

Now let's prepare the corrugated paper. You need to cut it into strips about one and a half centimeters high, and in length, this value is curled because how fluffy the Christmas tree needs to be. We propose to take a third of the planned length for the allowance. The stripes should be of different sizes to maintain the triangular shape of the herringbone. That is, both the shortest and longest strips should be available.

Now you need to glue the strips of corrugated paper in place. It is better to start from the lower tiers and gradually work your way up. Focusing on the marks made earlier and using glue or double-sided tape, glue the strips, picking them up a little. To get a kind of skirt with folds.

When finished, you can decorate the top of your Christmas tree with a star and glue glitter, rain, bows, or something like that.

You need to pick up some elements or come up with kind words. So that your postcard will leave an even greater impression on the addressee.

Idea number 2. New Year card and some scrapbooking

In this version, it is better to print the wish in advance or print it on a separate piece of paper, which can also be played up and presented in an original way.

So, what do you need to create a postcard:

1. Thick colored cardboard or paper. A4 format will suffice.
2. Scissors.
4. Elements for decoration, at your discretion.
5. Scrap paper.
6. Any object shaped like a pencil.

Scrapbooking postcard, for beginners

Decide on the size of the poor Christmas tree. And already based on this, plan how much paper you need. More precisely, how many and what size you need to cut into rectangles from scrap paper.

Then, as you decided on the number of rectangles and cut them out, you need to roll each one into cylinders. The basis of which will be a pencil or something cylindrical in shape, which you have at your fingertips. You need to twist the tubes in the direction of the width, and so that they keep their shape, after you remove the base, you need to fix the structure with glue.

After each rectangle is twisted into a tube, you need to connect all the tubes together with glue. Naturally, you should stick to roughly the shape of a Christmas tree, that is, a triangle.

Now let's get to the base of the postcard. Take a prepared piece of cardboard or heavy paper and fold it in half. Now you need to glue the Christmas tree to one of the halves. But before that, the glue on the tree should grasp enough and dry.

After the Christmas tree is glued to the base of the postcard, it's time to decorate it. For this purpose, you can use all kinds of decorations - buttons, miniature bows, ribbons, beads, rivets, sequins, sequins, in a word, whatever your heart desires.

Decorations can be glued onto double-sided tape.

Do not forget to write something nice to the addressee inside.

Idea number 3. New Year's card in the style of "children's hands"

This idea is perfect for little needlewomen and needlewomen. She is uncomplicated, but sweet and open, just like a child's soul. Let's not hesitate, call the kids and let's get started.

1. Colored cardboard. We propose to take the classic color combination: red and green. But you are free to change them.
2. Sequins, rhinestones, sequins.
3. Wrapping paper or candy wrapper.
4. Black thin marker.
5. Scissors.
6. Double-sided tape and / or PVA glue.
7. Elements for decoration, at your discretion.
8. Stapler.
9. Hot melt glue.

Let's start by preparing the base for the postcard. To do this, take the red cardboard and simply fold it in half. You can cut off the corners of the resulting rectangle a little. This will make your message more interesting.

We make a Christmas tree. You will need to take a green cardboard and fold it in half and then cut it. Bend the "accordion" out of one half. Determine the width of the "step" yourself. We recommend at least one centimeter and no more than three. Grab one end of the "accordion" with a stapler, you can put two staples for reliability.

Now let's arrange the stump. To do this, you need to cut out a simple rectangle from wrapping paper or candy wrappers. If you use the latter, then do not forget to first iron it with an iron through a simple sheet of paper. This will help straighten the wrapper.

Now you need to glue the Christmas tree to the base of the postcard. Hot melt glue is perfect for this purpose. It is better not to trust children with this operation. At the free end of the Christmas tree, tuck the stump and glue it too.


Advice. Since the heat gun heats the rod to a sufficiently high temperature, the child can burn himself or ruin the whole work with a careless movement, it will be offensive.
It's time to dress up the Christmas tree. Glue the decorations you have prepared to the crown. Don't forget to put something big and pretty on top of your New Year's beauties.

Give your child a marker and let him write some simple and kind words on a postcard and let him make a couple of mistakes, where can we go without them?

Idea number 4. New Year card in the style of "minimalism"

We offer you a postcard with a herringbone in a minimalist style for consideration and inspiration. At first glance, a simple and even modest postcard becomes quite complicated when studied in detail. But you're not looking for easy ways, are you?

So what you need to create a minimalist greeting card

1. Thick colored cardboard or paper. A4 format will suffice.
2. Stationery knife or shaped hole punch.
3. Thread with a needle. It is better to take the color of the thread contrasting with the main color of the postcard. And the type of thread you can take is similar to "iris".
4. Pencil and ruler.
5. Sequins.
6. Scissors.

DIY Christmas card for children

We will start, as they say, from the beginning. Fold a piece of cardboard in half. Now on one of the parts you need to make some sketches. This applies to the location of the top of the tree and the tree itself. After you conditionally placed the Christmas tree on the half of the postcard. Carefully cut through the top of the tree. If you have a shaped hole punch, then this task will not take much of your time. Well, if there is no hole punch, then first draw a star, then carefully cut it out with a clerical knife. By the way, before starting work, it is better to update the tip of the blade.

After you are done with the star. Take a thread with a needle and using your marks, start making stitches. Remember to string enough sequins onto the string after piercing the paper. It is not advisable to pull the thread tightly and it is also not desirable for it to sag.

Now you need to make notes through the cut out hole of the sprocket. So that its location can be seen inside the postcard. Use a sticker in the shape of an asterisk and any other, not necessarily exactly this shape, as long as it is not clear what kind of sticker it is when the postcard is closed.

That's all. Write something good inside and donate boldly!

Idea number 5. Postcard with a Christmas tree in origami technique.

Origami is a very complex and interesting technique. Her Asian roots give her a certain charm and mystery. At the mention of this technique, complex structures and intricate schemes immediately pop up in memory. But don't worry, the tree below is not aerobatics. You will definitely cope with it.

So, what do you need to create an origami Christmas card:
1. Colored thick paper, not cardboard.
2. Colored cardboard.
3. Double-sided tape and / or PVA glue.
4. Elements for decoration, at your discretion.

Let's start at the bottom of the postcard. Gently bend a sheet of multi-colored A4 cardboard (you can also use another one) in half.

Tip: Keep in mind some cardboard sheets tend to crack when folded. This greatly affects the aesthetics of the postcard itself. If you have trouble running into such cardboard, then the bend can be decorated with curly cut colored paper or tape, or even braid.

So, now we need to fold about three origami modules. More or less modules can be made depending on the original size. Accordingly, the herringbone will be larger or smaller.
Let's start from an example. Take three squares of heavyweight or scrapbooking paper. You can print any image you want on thick paper. The sides of the square, as we said above, can affect the size of the tree. In our case, 20 centimeters. The square needs to be folded diagonally, then expanded and bent again diagonally, crosswise.

You have conventionally marked four triangles, now you need to fill in two opposite to each other. Now press the resulting triangle to any surface and mark for yourself the conditional center of the figure, bend the bottom corner parallel to the marked middle. Repeat the procedure with the second corner. The module is ready. Add two more. You can take a different color of paper.

Let's start assembling the Christmas tree. Glue the origami module onto the base of the postcard. You can use glue or tape. The formation of the Christmas tree should be done from top to bottom, as if nesting the next module into the previous one.



The next step is to fill in the details for your postcard. How and what to decorate, choose yourself. As an example, we offer bows and buttons.

Idea number 6. Postcard with ribbon - herringbone

This idea is also minimalist. And does not represent too much complex structure... If you are looking for ideas for working with children, then this idea is perfect for you.

So, what do you need to create a card with a ribbon herringbone:

1. Thick colored cardboard or paper. A4 format will suffice.
2. Scissors.
3. Double-sided tape and / or PVA glue.
4. Elements for decoration, at your discretion.
5. Decorative ribbons, scrap paper or clippings from brightly colored printed pages.
6. Stickers. In this version, it is important to take stickers in the form of stars.

We will start, respectively, with the preparation of the basis. To do this, bend a sheet of cardboard in half. Among the prepared materials, look for paper or tape in color that is closest to brown. We will decorate the trunk of the Christmas tree. The ideal option would be to cut a highly elongated trapezoid out of brown paper. On one of the halves of the base, glue the trunk of the Christmas tree. Try to place it exclusively in the middle of the sheet.

After you have completed work with the trunk, you need to pay attention to the crown of the tree. Namely, cutting the prepared material into strips. Each next strip should be longer or, accordingly, shorter than the previous one. It is better not to change the width. We suggest cutting strips of about 1.5-2 centimeters.

Now that you have visually imagined how many strips you need, you need to cut the corners of the cut ribbons at an angle of about 45 degrees. So that, in general, the tapes, already placed in their proper places, represent a triangle with a strongly pointed apex. It is better to do this not for each tape separately, but for all at once, with one, so to speak, notch.


Glue the star-shaped sticker to the very top of your tree. On this we can consider the work on this postcard finished. But you can add details with decorative elements. This is for your taste.

Idea number 7. Christmas card with original Christmas tree

And one more idea for inspiration for the New Year's variation. The idea is also not distinguished by the multistep and high cost of materials. And at the exit there is an original and cute decoration for a New Year's card. If you take pastel shades, or as makeup artists like to say, nude shades, then the postcard will have a rather bright feminine character. Such a card would be an appropriate addition to a present for a woman of middle age and older.

So, what do you need to create a greeting card with an original Christmas tree:

1. Thick colored cardboard or paper. A4 format will suffice.
2. Scissors.
3. Double-sided tape and / or PVA glue.
4. Elements for decoration, at your discretion.
5. Round napkins or double-sided colored paper.

The first thing we do is smooth the cardboard across. Now the main part of the postcard is ready.

Now we are making a Christmas tree. To this end, you need to take a double-sided napkin in the shape of a circle and divide it exactly in half. In the future, you only need one piece to create one Christmas tree. Well, if you could not find suitable napkins, then you can make paper for this purpose yourself. The main thing is to decide what size your Christmas tree appears to you.

Since it must be borne in mind that the average printer is able to print any picture only in A4 format. Accordingly, based on this, it is necessary to calculate the size of the living tree. Alternatively, you can use heavyweight double-sided paper.
In favor of the option with a printout: if you print only a semicircle, the size of the tree will increase to 20-25 centimeters.

So, you have decided on the paper and there is a semicircle in front of you. In order to fold the Christmas tree, you need to do a fairly simple operation. By smooth edge step back about 3-5 centimeters in the semicircle and make an inconspicuous note for yourself. This is where the top of your tree will be located. Now "accordion" smooth the paper. The step width is approximately five centimeters. Experiment with this. You may be satisfied with other options.


It makes sense to fix the resulting folds so that the Christmas tree does not strive to free itself like a spring. This can be easily done with double-sided tape. When your hand becomes more confident in folding the accordion, you can pre-fix the tape on a semicircle of paper.

Now you need to glue the Christmas tree on one of the halves of the poor postcard. This can be done with tape or glue.
If you wish, add details to the card, decorate the Christmas tree with decorative elements.

We are all familiar with children's books since childhood. Who, not yet knowing about it, were the founders of the modern ultra-fashionable 3D. Turning over the next sheet, we met with foxes, wolves or Koloboks, who as if alive rose above the book pages. Agree, then for us it was almost magic. We have grown up, and now we can try on the mantle of a wizard simply by making voluminous postcards for the New Year.

So, what you need to create a New Year card with a 3D effect:

1. Thick colored cardboard or paper. A4 format will suffice.
2. Scissors.
3. Curly scissors (optional).
4. Pencil and ruler.
5. Stationery knife.
6. Elements for decoration, at your discretion.

Let's start making 3D postcards for the New Year

It is required to cut out several triangles from colored cardboard; for this purpose, take curly scissors. In the future, these triangles will become tree crowns. You don't have to make them the same, you can experiment with the sizes.

Now let's get down to preparing the base of the postcard. For this purpose, you need to take two sheets of cardboard and paper. The cardboard will act as the backing, and the paper will be the inner thread of the card. And fold them in half

A sheet of paper that will play the role of an inner liner must first be outlined, and then using a clerical knife or scissors to make cuts. The marks are applied perpendicular to the fold of the paper and are something like steps, namely stumps for poor Christmas trees.

The crowns of the Christmas trees prepared in advance must now be glued into place. To do this, open the inner insert of the postcard, you should get something like steps, so stick the Christmas trees on them. Have you already understood the principle of the postcard?

We invite you to familiarize yourself with the idea for creating a very original greeting and not only New Year's card. But still, it will look like the sheets folded in half that we are used to. Although, here is a completely different principle. But the addressee will definitely like it.

So, what do you need to create a dynamic New Year greeting card:

1. Thick colored cardboard and / or paper. A4 format will suffice.
2. Scissors.
3. Stationery knife.
4. Compasses.
5. Sufficiently thick thread.

On a standard A4 sheet of paper, draw a circle with a compass. Then cut it out. Now fold the resulting circle in half and use scissors to make cuts that are alternately arranged and reflect the outline of the circle. As the distance from the center increases, the incisions should become longer.

After that, you need to straighten the circle. Glue the thread to the center of the circle. To make the product more interesting. The thread is passed through the top and circles made of cardboard, contrasting in color, are glued to it. The thread is positioned so that the glued circles are located under the base of the circle. Now, if you pull the string, the structure will turn into an unusual garland shaped like a herringbone. And inside, bright circles will playfully be seen.

Now you need to glue the Christmas tree after returning it to the folded state. While gluing, make sure that you do not glue too much, and the tree has the ability to creep out. The base to which you will glue your dynamic Christmas tree can be made of folded cardboard.

That's basically it. You have got an unusual and dynamic postcard, it remains to write congratulations and present.

Idea number 10. New Year's cards, decorated with double-sided tape with a backing

We offer you several options at once under one heading. Since they have a common element - in all versions, double-sided tape with a backing was used as a basis for decorating and fixing the elements.

So, what do you need to create a New Year greeting card using double-sided tape:

  1. Double-sided tape with backing.
  2. Thick colored cardboard or paper. A4 format will suffice.
  3. Scissors.
  4. Shaped hole punch, upon request.
  5. Ribbons, cord, or thick thread.

Option 1. First you need to prepare the basics for the postcards. This is very simple to do - you just need to take a few sheets of cardboard and bend them in half. You can make not only rectangular shapes, but the simplest and most familiar ones. Triangular or cardboard ones will also be quite original, just keep in mind that not all decor elements look equally good, for example, on a round shape.

Video, DIY Christmas cards

Then we will prepare the elements for decoration. Using a shaped hole punch, cut out a lot of colored cardboard circles from colored paper. It is desirable that the size be different. Well, if a hole punch was not found on the farm, you can simply cut everything out with scissors. True, it will take more time, but we are not looking for easy ways? It is better to take paper that is hard and different in color. The ideal option would be to use colors that differ in several tones, but within the same shade. You can take paper that simulates a mirror surface and add it as an add-on.

Now you need to take the prepared base of the postcard and stick adhesive tape on it. By creating a semblance of a circle on the sheet. Then remove the protective layer from the pads of the tape and glue the multi-colored circles. Repeat this procedure as you add more layers. Try to alternate mugs different sizes... The number of layers is yours. Add them until you get the desired result. Then just tie a colorful ribbon with a bow and glue it at the top, making the circles glued in layers into a kind of wreath.

Option 2. A fairly minimalistic option. Good for men or guys. You will need a prepared base of the postcard, on which you glue a piece of scotch tape, and on it a square of plain cardboard. Determine the size yourself. At the top of the cardboard square, place a slightly variegated ribbon bow. It will turn out to be a kind of stylization of the image of a gift.


Option 3. Cut out several rectangles of various shapes from colored cardboard. They must be wrapped with thread in the manner of wrapping gifts with ribbon and leave a bow on top. Then stick the postcards in a row on the double-sided cattle along the lower edge of the blank. You can succinctly add "Happy New Year!"

Postcard with New Year's embroidery.

Such a postcard will impress even the most fastidious recipients. After all, here you put your energy and soul into not only collecting ready-made parts and giving them a festive look, but also creating these very details with your own hands. For embroidery, you can choose any pattern that matches the theme of the new year. It could be Santa Claus, a cheerful snowman, a holiday tree, christmas balls, symbol of 2017 - Fire Rooster and other.

To create such a New Year's craft, you will need: glue, scissors, embroidery, satin ribbons, and other decorative elements, if desired.

As in the first version, first we prepare the base of the postcard and give it the desired shape. Then we glue the embroidery and decorate the edges of the picture. You can do this in the following ways: use a satin ribbon, half beads, rhinestones and sequins. Such a postcard in itself is already finished product and does not require special additions in the form of sequins and sequins, but if it seems to you that they will only complement the overall look, then add. If the card is intended for a friend, sister or mom, you can use a bow from satin ribbon, such decor will give the product a great prettiness.
