In stores today you can find New Year's cards for every taste. But the editorial website believes that homemade ones are much warmer. After all, when we make a thing for someone with our own hands, we put our love into it.

Below we have collected ideas for beautiful, original and, most importantly, “quick” New Year cards, which do not require any rare materials to create - beautiful paper, cardboard, and colorful ribbons and buttons lying around in the house.

Volumetric Christmas trees

Volumetric Christmas trees made of white and colored paper are so simple to make that you can make them at the last moment. Read more on the Bog&ide blog.

Make 3D Christmas trees even faster. All you need is a ruler, sharp scissors and cardboard. This blog shows how to cut them.

Penguin

We really liked this penguin, well thought out. You will need black and white cardboard (or white paper), a triangle of orange paper and 2 miniature snowflakes that we all know how to cut. The eyes are, of course, the highlight of the postcard, and you will have to look into the hobby store for them (or tear them off an unnecessary children's toy, with the consent of the children, of course).

gifts

For this cute and simple postcard, you need 2 sheets of cardboard, a ruler, scissors and glue. Also pieces wrapping paper, which you have left from gift wrapping, ribbons and ribbons. The manufacturing principle is very simple, but for those who want more details, we advise you to look at this blog.

Santa Claus

A friendly Santa Claus (or Santa Claus) can be made in just half an hour. red hat and pink face- these are strips of paper pasted on a postcard or gift bag. Fur hats and beards are obtained as follows: you need to take drawing paper and simply tear off the strips of the desired shape to get jagged edges. Stick on a postcard over the red and pink stripes. And then draw two squiggles - a mouth and a nose - and two dots - eyes.

simple drawings

Irresistible in its elegance, the idea is to draw with a black gel pen Christmas balls with patterns. The main thing here is to draw the correct circles and mark the lines for the patterns. Everything else will not be difficult - the stripes and squiggles that you draw when you are bored.

The same principle that underlies the postcard with black and white balloons. Simple silhouettes, painted with simple patterns, this time in color - this is best done with felt-tip pens. Warm and very nice.

Lots and lots of different trees

A couple more ideas from the Bog&ide blog. For the first one you need decorative tape or colored cardboard (with or without glitter - now you can easily buy these at the stationery store or hobby stores). For the second - elegant straws for drinks and good glue.

Here you can use paper or cardboard with a pattern left over from children's crafts, or wrapping paper for gifts. Christmas trees are sewn in the center - this is not necessary at all, you can glue them. But if you really want to, then you must first make holes with a thick needle along the ruler, and then sew with a thread in 2 rows - up and down, so that there are no gaps. Draw a snowball with white gouache.

Laconic and stylish idea- a grove of Christmas trees, one of which is glued to the foam Double-sided tape(and therefore rises above the rest) and is adorned with a star.

For this card, you need 4 or 3 layers of cardboard (you can do without red). As a color layer, you can use not cardboard, but paper. In the upper, white one, cut out a Christmas tree (a clerical knife will do well) and glue it on double-sided tape for volume.

A round dance of Christmas trees from various remnants of cardboard, scrapbooking paper, wrapping paper is tied with a simple ribbon and decorated with a button. Try playing with colors and textures - there are an incredible number of options here, using different colors of ribbons, paper and even fabric.

Wonderful watercolor so in the spirit of the New Year and Christmas! A simple watercolor sketch is within the power of everyone, even those who last painted with paints in school years. First you need to outline the patterns with a pencil, color them in, and when it dries, gently wipe the pencil sketches and supplement the patterns with a felt-tip pen.

Winter landscape

For this postcard, it is better to use structured cardboard, or you can get by with plain, smooth cardboard - it will still turn out spectacularly. Cut out sharp scissors snowy landscape and the moon and paste on a black or dark blue background.

Another white and green variant of the winter landscape that will take a little more time. If you find velvety cardboard (remember, crafts were made from this at school), it will be great, if not, you can just paint the Christmas trees with a felt-tip pen. Snow - Styrofoam disassembled into peas. You can also make circles out of cardboard with a hole punch and glue them to the postcard.

hugging snowman

The author of the My kid craft blog made this snowman with her children. The snowman throws up his hands happily when the card is opened. Wishes can be written inside. It will be interesting for children to make an application (and paint their hands and a hat), but for those who want everything to be fast, the blog has ready-made parts that can be printed on a color printer and simply glued together.

More snowmen

Snowmen, inquisitively peering into the starry sky, will look more advantageous if they can find a bright ribbon for a scarf.

For the postcard on the left you need unpainted cardboard, white drawing paper and foam tape with which you will stick the snowman. Snowdrifts are made simply: you need to tear off the drawing paper so that you get a ragged wavy edge. Fill it in with a blue pencil and blend it with anything, even with a finger or a piece of paper. Also tint the edges of the snowman for volume. For the second you will need buttons, a piece of fabric, eyes, glue and colored markers.

You will want to keep such a postcard for a long time. And all you need is circles of cardboard, a nose and twigs of colored paper. All this must be collected using double-sided bulk tape. Draw eyes and buttons with black paint, and a snowball with white gouache or watercolor.

Balloons

Balls are one of the main symbols of the New Year and Christmas. These are made from velvety colored paper and ribbons. But balloons are such a win-win option that you can allow yourself to fantasize here: make balloons from patterned paper, wrapping paper, fabric, lace, cut out from a newspaper or glossy magazine. And the strings can simply be drawn.

Another option is to stick the paper with the pattern on the inside of the card, and cut it out with a sharp knife on the outside. stationery knife circles.

Volume balls

For each of these balls, you will need 3-4 identical circles of different colors. Fold each in half and glue the halves to each other, and the two extreme halves to the paper. Another option is colored stars or Christmas trees.

colorful balls

Wonderful translucent balls are obtained using a regular pencil eraser. It is worth to begin with to outline the outlines of the ball with a pencil. Then dip the eraser into the paint and leave marks on the paper. Fun and beautiful.

Postcards with buttons

Bright buttons will add volume to postcards, as well as evoke subtle associations with childhood.

The main thing is to find buttons of interesting colors, but otherwise it’s up to you to “hang” them on a Christmas tree, on a branch with cute owls or on newspaper clouds.

- ¼ sheet of colored paper;

- corner hole puncher;

- gouache paints;

- brush, sponge or foam rubber;

Read a poem about a snowman to your child and invite him to draw it on a New Year's card.

Do-it-yourself paper snowman postcard: a description of the manufacture in step-by-step photos

Step 1. We make the basis for a card with a snowman.

Cut a sheet of A4 white cardboard or landscape sheet into 2 equal parts. Fold 1/2 sheet of cardboard in half.

Step 2. Making a frame.

1/4 sheet of paper of blue color reduce by cutting off 1.5 - 2 cm on both sides (the amount depends on how much you want to leave the frame in white).

Using a corner hole punch, draw the corners on blue paper.

Lubricate the edges of blue paper with glue from the wrong side and stick it on white cardboard so that a white frame remains on all sides.

Step 3. Making a snowman template.

Cut out cardboard according to the size of the postcard (from a notebook cover or from a box of chocolates), on which mark two circles with a compass: the top one is slightly smaller than the bottom one or circle any two round objects. IN this case the diameter of the upper circle is 4.5 cm, the lower one is 5.5 cm. Cut out two circles, getting a shape in the form of the number 8 inside the cardboard.

You will end up with a sheet of cardboard that has a hole in the shape of the number 8 (our snowman template).

Apply the template to the postcard.

Step 4. Draw a snowman.

Attach cardboard template to the postcard with paper clips. Dip a sponge or a piece of foam rubber into white paint and stamp it on blue paper inside the circles, leaving the topmost part unpainted, where the snowman's hat will be.

Step 5. Let's see what we got.

Remove the template from the postcard. Here's what you got.

Step 6. We draw snowdrifts.

Similarly, apply white paint around the snowman - these are snowdrifts. You can press the sponge stick harder to print a white circle - snowballs.

Step 7. Draw a snowman's hat.

Draw a hat with a lapel and a pompom in bright color.

Step 8. We make out the face of a snowman.

Draw a nose in orange - a carrot. Mark the mouth with black paint, and use an ear stick to put two dots - eyes.

Step 9. Draw a scarf.

Draw a scarf, fringe with bright paint. And draw stripes with several lines of black paint.

Step 10. We draw handles and buttons.

With dark green paint, use an ear stick to put 3 dots on the bottom circle of the snowman - these are buttons. AND brown paint with a thin brush draw handles - panicles.

We admire, our snowman is ready!

Of course, you can choose the colors by color yourself! Instead of a hat, you can draw a bucket, a pan, a hat with earflaps, a beret, a cap - this is your creativity!

Making a three-dimensional New Year's card with snowmen

1. Prepare white thick paper measuring 16X24 cm. Glue blue paper on it along the central fold.

2. Fold in half along the long side white paper 10X20 cm in size. Divide the outer sides in half with a dotted line and bend the edges to the central fold. It turned out to be a small accordion.

3. Let's draw a snowman on the accordion.

4. Cut out the snowman without unfolding the accordion. (Attention: do not cut to the end of the parts on the folds to get a single chain.)

5. Let's unfold the accordion on the table.

6. Color the buckets and scarves for the snowmen.

7. Spread glue on the back of the first and last snowman. Glue the extreme snowmen to the card so that the fold lines of the card and the central snowmen coincide.

8. You can stick clouds on a postcard. They are cut out of an accordion folded in four.

9. Close the card by bending the non-glued snowmen forward. We unfold the card - snowmen (clouds and snowdrifts) move forward.

❄ On the outside of the card, we will make a beautiful inscription:

"Congratulations!" or "Happy New Year!"

Decorate the card with snowflakes (draw or glue tiny pieces of cotton wool).

Step one. We need to find three round shapes, which will become templates. They should be of different sizes, but not larger than postcards.

After you have made your choice, you need to circle the templates on white cardboard and cut them out.

New Year's cards are always fraught with warmth and celebration. And we will make such a postcard with our own hands. It will consist of scrap paper and knitted elements, which will make it even warmer and more unusual.

For the postcard we need:

• scrap paper;
• Yarn (white, blue, orange and black);
• Hook;
• Satin ribbon;
• Glue;
• Needle;
• Rhinestones.

For a postcard, we take paper with the image of a girl or a boy on the street in winter. This is important, since we will make a card with a snowman. We fold the paper in half and form the basis for the card.

We knit a snowman

Now we start knitting with white yarn. We knit two loops and then in the second we will knit the first row of six RLS. Next we will add columns. In the second row we knit an addition to each loop. And then in the new row we will make these additions in every second loop. We knitted one circle for the snowman. And I need to tie another one.

We knit another such circle. After that, we knit another additional row with increments to make the circle larger than the previous one. And here we are already doing an addition in every third loop of the row.

We take that circle, which is smaller, and begin to embroider a nose-carrot with an orange thread. Then with a black thread we embroider eyes-embers.

Now you need to knit a hat for the snowman. We knit it with a blue thread or any other thread that matches the tone of the postcard. We knit three VP and one more. Then we will knit three rows, turning after each.

Now we knit the brim of the hat. In the first and last loop, we will perform two sc. In the new row, we also perform two sc in the first and last loop of the row.

Now glue the details to the postcard. We glue a large circle, a small one on top (head). Glue a hat on the head.

Now we will knit a half of a snowflake, which we will glue in the corner of the postcard. We knit two loops with white yarn. Now we knit in the second three RLS. After that, we knit up three VPs. And then seven more loops. In the seventh we knit SS. Then we make eleven VP and SS in the same place where we knitted it. And once again we will dial seven VPs and knit the SS to the place where we already have two SSs.

And then on the three remaining loops we knit to the base of the SS. At the base we will knit two more SS. And let's repeat the ray.
