Postcards herringbone in the style of scrapbooking

Even if you have never been scrapbooking,with a little effort, get a terrific result. Some materials will need to be purchased in a special store for creativity. This is a beautiful designer paper, there are many at home. Here's what should be on your desktop:

  figured puncher (heart)

You can use plain cardboard fromstationery store, but we propose to purchase a cardstock for scrapbooking. It is a thick paper, with which it is easy to work in various techniques: embossing and lacerated edges. To add an interesting postcard texture, get a green textured cardstock. The basis is white. The postcard can be flat one-sided or opening. If you want to add colors, replace the white with a bright crimson. The main materials are ready, you can get down to business.

New Year's card: master class and step-by-step photos

We start to work with a green background. Armed with a composter, gently round the corners of the cardstock. If you do not have a tool, mark the line with a pencil and cut off the corners with scissors or a knife.

You do not need to use a semicircle.fantasy. The main thing is that the edges are decorated symmetrically. Glue the green cardstock on the white base so that a neat frame of 0.5 cm wide remains.

The next step is cutting the hearts. The fir-tree will be unusual, with hearts instead of needles. New Year's card should be very creative. If there is no figured hole punch, get multi-colored stickers or use a stencil. Figures should be of different size and shape.

Elke needs an interesting pot. For him, we will use red cardboard and scrapbooking paper. At us it in a white-green cage, you are free to choose. Cut a small trapezoid from the paper, the size of the base -2 cm, the top -4 cm.

From the red cardstock, we form a greater trapezoid: 2.6 cm-base, 4.6 cm-top. We glue the two parts together and get a charming tub for the New Year's "heart" tree.

It remains to compose the composition. Two pencils limit the triangular zone for our Christmas tree. How to do it, shown in the photo.

We begin to fasten the details to a double-sided scotch. The opening is ready by our own hands. The 3D effect gives it an unusual interesting look.

This can be stopped, but there is no creativitylimit, so we suggest adding a flirty note with the help of a narrow green ribbon. We tie a neat bow and paste it in the upper left corner and create a "girdle" in the bottom third of the postcard.

For New Year 2015 your family will get a beautifuldesign greetings. An interesting form, a combination of textures, an unusual play on the figure-tree, all this draws attention to the postcard. But the most important thing is that it is executed with love with our own hands.
