Postcards created by children's hands bring great joy to their parents. And it's okay if the crafts do not differ in design from the rest of the work of the pupils of the kindergarten group, because the kids are trying very hard and the gifts are always received from the bottom of their hearts. In this section, we have collected unique recommendations for making such postcards, as well as a huge amount of advice for beginner cardmakers, because that is what they call those who make postcards with their own hands. You can make them with your kids with absolutely no effort.

You can take our resource with the works of preschoolers as the basis for making holiday cards, and also connect all your imagination, and everything will work out for you and your baby.

We love holidays and we love gifts. And we all love postcards - to receive and give. Postcards are given for many events - birthday or New Year, March 8 or the birth of a child.

You go to the store - there are a lot of postcards, even the text is already printed inside - everything has already been invented and said for you, only - not from the heart.

Gift with love

Only handmade postcards can convey your feelings towards the gifted person. Buying an ordinary cardboard postcard is easy, but making it yourself means putting a piece of yourself into it. After all, making such a gift, you imagine the person to whom it will be intended.

Remember, we all tried in childhood, in kindergarten or school, made postcards for the holiday for our parents - carefully cut out, folded, glued. Then they were handed over. Remember how carefully mom and dad took the gift, kept it, and many still keep it with your children's drawings and crafts.

Today, handmade products are becoming more and more popular. Embroidered pillows decorate the house, knitted things are worn with pride. He does not sew, does not knit and does not glue, only the completely lazy.

Scrapbooking is gaining more and more fans - photo albums, paper postcards, made with love, made in a single copy - become a unique gift for various festive events.

For someone who has mastered at least the basics of scrapbooking, there is no question - what to give to a loved one, and these gifts are admirable.

The art of giving joy

Making postcards out of paper is called cardmaking. It is based on the use of paper and various additional materials. For an experienced scraper, when making a postcard, everything will be used - ribbons, small paper, fabric flowers, cutting - elements cut out of paper, buttons, lace and much more.

There are many ways to make postcards out of paper.

Experienced craftswomen make multilayer volumetric products, the more layers, the more interesting the postcard looks.

The elements are glued together and even stitched. The styles in which the masters work are also different - shabby chic, steampunk and others.

It is impossible to create two completely identical postcards.

It is impossible to say that card-making is a simple art. After all, in the process of creating just one thing, a composition is created, changed, and formed. A scraper must be an artist - to know the basics and subtleties of creating an ideal composition, selecting materials, and combining colors.

Sometimes this process of selection and application takes more than one hour, or even a day - the artist is a delicate nature, there is no inspiration, and nothing masterpiece will be created. And sometimes everything seems to add up by itself - and now a do-it-yourself postcard for the birth of a child or for the birthday of a loved one is ready.

Look at a variety of photos of postcards - how rich is the imagination of the masters who create harmonious compositions from many small disparate details.

We create a gift ourselves

Experienced scrapers use special scrap paper for work - it is dense, tends not to fade, does not fade over time. This ensures that your gift will keep its beauty for a long time.

Scrap paper comes with various patterns, sold in sets or individual sheets.

Note!

We also need:

  • Thick plain paper for the base - watercolor is suitable.
  • A utility knife and a metal ruler (if you are into scrapbooking, you can later purchase a special cutter to cut the paper straight - scissors are not the best option for this).
  • Scissors for cutting small parts.
  • Glue - ordinary PVA, clerical - will not work, it warps the paper, it will turn yellow over time. Take Titan, Moment and the like - scrap shops will advise you on others - see what is available to you.
  • Double-sided adhesive tape - they can also connect the elements of a postcard, and with adhesive tape on a porous basis, you can create multi-layer volumetric compositions.
  • Decorative elements - flowers, cuttings, ribbons, pieces of lace, elements cut out of scrap paper - butterflies, birds, twigs and others.

Buttons, pendants, buckles and other small items can be used to create a composition.

Stamps are often used - with their help you can create an interesting background for a future postcard, add certain elements, make inscriptions.

An interesting technique when creating voluminous postcards is embossing - a transparent stamp is applied to the base, which is sprinkled with special powder.

The last stage - the powder is dried with a special hair dryer - as a result, a three-dimensional image is obtained: most often this technique is used when creating the contours of a drawing, inscriptions.

Figured hole punchers - they can make an openwork edge, with their help they make voluminous flowers, cuttings.

Note!

In general, there are a lot of professional tools for scrapbooking and card-making, it makes sense to acquire some only when making postcards for sale. But, having mastered the art, you will not only please your friends with original gifts, but also replenish the family budget.

Pick up several sheets of scrap paper that match the style, color, put a background on the base, and decorative elements selected by color on it. The composition should be a coherent whole so that each element has a meaning.

You can use special sketch diagrams, they will tell you how to arrange the elements to create a harmonious composition. Having carefully prepared everything, making sure that each element is thought out, glue.

If something seems to be missing - add a couple of sparkles along the edges of the flowers, rhinestones, half beads. The main thing is the unity and thoughtfulness of the composition so that the postcard does not look like an application.

There are many tricks - how to make a beautiful postcard:

  • quilling - curls are twisted from thin strips of paper, then they are given various shapes - these elements are glued to the base, creating a pattern, drawing - voluminous postcards are obtained;
  • iris folding - small strips of paper, ribbons, fabrics are folded in a spiral, overlapping each other - an unusual pattern is obtained;
  • shaker postcard - a multilayer postcard with a transparent window, inside which small elements move - foil rhinestones, beads;
  • postcard-tunnel - a three-dimensional postcard with many layers, the cut out elements of each layer create a common spatial pattern.

Note!

Inside the postcard can also be issued with stamps, paper. You can make an unusual card inside - when you open it, the three-dimensional element straightens out - a heart or a bouquet of paper flowers will undoubtedly surprise the recipient.

Such a postcard made of paper cannot but be liked - it keeps warmth and a piece of your soul. If you want to master the art of card-making, visit the master classes of experienced craftsmen who will tell you all the subtleties - you can make a beautiful card with your own hands.
