Simple Hand Made Merry Christmas Greeting Cards

Christmas is a time of giving Christmas greeting cards. Cards are a very important part of giving and receiving. This holiday season; instead of buying a box of Christmas cards to give your loved ones, consider making them yourself. Enlist the help of the kids and enjoy spending time together, while you put love and thoughtfulness into each and every card. First, you’ll want to come up with some ideas of what you’d like the Christmas cards to look like. Choose colors and themes, and then draw or write on a piece of paper what the card will say and look like.

Once you’ve decided on a card “template “, it’s time to gather your supplies together. Make a list and go to your local craft store to get everything you need. You’ll most likely want to have glue sticks, glitter, card stock or other thick paper, and anything else you’ll need to make your Christmas greeting cards. You can print the message you want to use for the card onto the actual paper, and use this as the “base card “. Choose the font and color of your message as well as the location, and then print this onto the card stock paper for each card you plan to make.

After the Christmas greeting cards are printed, fold them in the manner you prefer, whether it’s top to bottom or side to side, and even a little fold-over section for the top if you’re making a card with this style. If you’re gluing different colored paper or letters, etc onto the card, it’s time to go ahead and start cutting them out and getting them ready to glue to the card. Once you have enough shapes or letters in the paper style and color you need, go ahead and glue them to the front and inside (if need be) of the card. Make sure they are applied securely and if you’re using wet glue, be sure it dried thoroughly before moving on to the next step.

The fun part of making your own Christmas greeting cards is the personalized decoration. Add glitter, shaped brads (these can be found at most craft stores), or even photos. The choice is yours, but no matter what you choose, be sure it’s a reflection of your style and that it shows others how much you love them. Use your creativity and make the most unique Christmas cards ever. Let it become a family tradition, and come up with new card ideas to make by hand each year.
