Crepe Paper Christmas Cards
With Christmas only a month away now is the time to start making your crepe paper Christmas Cards. Many people think that crepe paper is only used for flowers. When in fact the paper can be used to make several things. The colorful assortment of crepe paper will allow you to make nearly any type Christmas card you can think of.
In this article I’ll provide you with a few wonderful crepe paper Christmas card ideas you can make. The items you will need include; crepe paper, shears, ribbon, clear drying glue and a ruler. For each project you will need a few additional items as well that you may already have or can pick up at a craft store.
Christmas cards – To make a crepe paper Christmas card you will need all of the supplies listed above and a few additional ones; cardstock, old Christmas cards with pictures on them, green and red glitter and green, red, silver or gold curling ribbon. To assemble the card use your ruler to measure the cardstock to the size you want, you can have a single card or a double card (one that folds in half.)
Cover the cardstock in crepe paper using the clear drying glue to attach it. If you want to write a personal message be sure to leave a small section of the card free of the crepe paper. Next cut out a design from an old Christmas card and glue it to the front of the crepe paper covered card stock. You can add a little glitter or a small ribbon bow if you like or anything else you can think of.
Some people also chose to substitute the “old Christmas card” picture with a family picture or a picture of their child or children or a hand colored picture by a child. The last idea is nice for grandparents and family members who do not get to see the child very often. You can also enclose an updated picture or even two of the child.
You can also make a Christmas card in the shape of a holiday symbol such as; a wreath, Santa Clause, Christmas tree, star, gingerbread boy or girl, candy cane, snowman, or any other item you associate with Christmas. All you need is a large metal cookie cutter or a paper pattern. Using the cardstock cut out the shape and cover the front of it with the crepe paper. You can decorate it any way you like. You may want to give a snowman, gingerbread boy or girl wiggly eyes or make tiny little balls out of the paper for the Christmas tree to represent bulbs, a wreath can be decorate with different colors of glitter. Use the back to write a personal little note or attach a photo.
Crepe paper Christmas cards are so easy to make and the recipients will adore them. Don’t forget to add a little bow made from curly ribbon. These cards can also be made in a miniature form and used as gift tags!
