Let's get started. From cardboard we cut out the required number of rectangles, approximately 7x11 cm in size. Plus another rectangle of the same size.

Using a spool of thread, draw curves on the corners of the cards.

On the remaining rectangle we draw the silhouette of a Christmas tree.

Then, placing unnecessary magazines, newspapers or thick oilcloth under the cardboard, cut out the Christmas tree with a stationery knife.

Now we put the stencil on the blank for the postcard and with a small piece of sponge, put a little white paint on it, and apply the design.

We do the same with white blanks, only instead of white paint now it is green.

I use other colors and use my finger to “draw” balls on the Christmas tree.

We cut colored paper into small rectangles and squares, glue them under the Christmas tree, using a black pen and a stroke (can be replaced with white gouache) we turn the pieces of paper into present, drawing patterns and ribbons on them.

We make a hole with a hole punch and thread ribbons and laces into it - whatever we can find. Postcards are ready! And it didn’t take much time to make them. Children will especially enjoy this type of creativity - fast, easy and colorful!
Good luck!
