Large applications in the form of Santa Claus will decorate any Christmas card.

It is better to take the largest size of the hat, beard and occupy the entire part of the postcard with these main elements of Santa Claus - red nose, mustache, beard, hat.
You can fold Santa Claus for a postcard using the origami technique - as shown in the photo below.
New Year card in scrapbooking style
Scrapbooking is an entire art that teaches you how to create and decorate photo albums (in our case, a postcard) with your own hands. Scrapbooking has a whole history of how a notebook turned into an album. At the end of the 17th century, notebooks with additional blank pages appeared. Their owners pasted in images, creating entire collections. This is how scrapbooking began to develop.
You will need: thick colored A4 cardboard, PVA glue or double-sided tape, scissors, scrap paper, pencil, decorative elements (sequins, beads, rain, buttons, sequins...).
Master Class

- Glue all the tubes together, starting with the largest and ending with the smallest, creating a Christmas tree shape.
- Make the base of the card by folding a piece of cardboard in half.

Ideas for decorating postcards with paints and pencils
To quickly and easily make a children's card for the class teacher, teacher or grandparents, you can use the most affordable materials - pencils and paints. The simplest solution is to draw basic objects with your fingers. For example, you can make a cool snowman with white spots placed with your fingers one under the other. To do this, you just need to finish drawing his face, buttons, and handles. Using this principle, you can draw funny elves, bullfinches, penguins, and a Christmas tree. The main rule is to supplement the prints with an outline or other important elements. But with the help of ordinary pencils, using the following master class, you can also make stylish and unusual postcards:
- On a piece of paper, draw the outline of a New Year's character or a thematic element.
- Cut out the drawn picture.
- Attach the stencil remaining after cutting to a sheet of cardboard and paint over it with a pencil of the appropriate color.
- Complete the picture with the missing details (for example, you can add stripes to Santa Claus’s sleigh, and a hairstyle and nose, mouth, eyes to the Snow Maiden’s face) using a black pencil or felt-tip pen.

Postcards with a three-dimensional Christmas tree
When creating three-dimensional postcards, original elements can be placed inside the product or on the surface. Custom gifts with voluminous surface elements can be easily made in a few minutes. You will need colored paper and cardboard. To decorate the Christmas tree, paper sheets are folded into triangles and sequentially glued onto a cardboard base.

Before giving a child the task of making a New Year's card with his own hands for a school competition, teachers usually offer design options. Children usually like to make their own cards with the New Year's green symbol. It is not difficult to create an accordion tree: a triangular blank is bent in several places and strung on a twig/wire/decorative ribbon. The finished product is glued to the front side of the card and decoration continues with beads, sequins and tinsel.

New Year cards using scrapbooking technique: master class
Making a beautiful memorable gift for the New Year to your friends is not difficult and you don’t have to spend a lot of money to do it. New Year's cards in the scrapbooking style are now in great demand. There are no specific templates here; you can create as your imagination allows. But for beginners there are many master classes that will help you understand the process and also give you ideas.
You should not take on the most difficult option for making postcards in the scrapbooking style, although they look very attractive. You can start with a simple copy.
Materials:
- Scrap paper
- Beads
- Hot glue
- Cardboard
- Double sided tape
- Scissors
- Satin ribbon
- Pencil
You need to cut out a rectangle from cardboard that will become the base of the postcard. Cut out the shape a little smaller than the previous one. Glue the second part to the first using tape. Cut out a few more squares and rectangles. Glue all the parts on top of the workpiece. Using a pencil, draw a triangle that will serve as a Christmas tree. Hot glue the bead onto this triangle. Decorate the card with a ribbon, first tying a bow.
You can get an original card using the scrap technique if you make the base in the shape of a mitten.
To make it, you can use your hand, tracing it around the edges, or download a template.
Works in the scrapbooking style are distinguished by the fact that thick paper of bright colors is used to make cards; it can also be worn with some kind of pattern. The rest depends only on imagination, so each work will be different from the other.
A simple postcard, which borders between scrap and appliqué in technique, is done quite quickly and can be done by children.
To make it, you need to fold the sheet in half. Draw a line at the top of the postcard. Using a compass, cut out a ball from bright paper. Glue the ball to the side of the card and draw a line that will act as a rope. It can be decorated with beads or rhinestones
It is quite reasonable that most of the New Year's cards bear the image of a Christmas tree. This green beauty can make a simple New Year's card just with her presence.
Christmas trees on a postcard can be different in design. You can cut out Christmas trees in the form of a simple triangle. To make the card more voluminous, you can glue the Christmas tree to the base using voluminous double-sided tape.
New Year card in retro style
You will need: A4 colored cardboard, scissors, a simple pencil, ribbons, PVA glue, decorative elements (sequins, beads, rain, buttons, sequins, bows...).

- Cut the corners of the ribbons on both sides.
- Glue the tapes from bottom to top, in the shape of a triangle.
