Back to stationery
If you want to handcraft cards, revisit all the stationery materials you may have stowed away at home. “These mainly include brown cardstock for the base, and coloured paper: Red, green or beige,” Desai says. “Take white paper, silver glitter paper, and even stickers for snowflakes, polka dots, and a red ribbon. Don’t forget the scissors and glue.”
Cut out the shapes
For a card with layered paper trees, Desai instructs, “Cut the base first: Fold the brown card stock in half to form the card. Keep the front side flat for the design.” The next step is to make the trees.
