Would you like to create your own Christmas card
without spending hours on it? Then this DIY is for you! In 8 simple steps,
we'll show you how to craft a festive Christmas card, complete with an adorable
candy cane.
Merry Christmas!
1
Begin by cutting an A4 sheet of brown cardstock paper into a 22 x 16 cm size. Score the 22 cm side at 11 cm, resulting in a folded base card measuring 11 x 16 cm.
2
Next, trim the decorative paper with text to a 10 x 15 cm size and round the corners using a corner punch.
3
Attach the decorative paper to the front of the base card using double-sided tape, ensuring a margin of about half a cm at the edges.
4
Now, punch out seven red and seven white circles from the Florence cardstock paper.
5
To create a festive pattern, sketch the outline of a candy cane on the card and then alternately affix the red and white circles, allowing them to slightly overlap.
6
Punch a label from the brown cardstock paper and use a hole punch to make a hole at the top of the label.
7
Add a touch of holiday cheer by stamping a Christmas message on the card. Use a stamp block for a neat result.

Lastly, craft a bow by cutting approximately 23 cm of both coloured ribbons. Secure the ribbons and label to the card with double-sided tape.
