A New Year's gift can be a real rebus for each of us. Sometimes it is so difficult to choose the most suitable gift for your friends, relatives, relatives. But there are still situations when it seems like a gift has already been selected, but something is missing for it. Flowers are somehow not very New Year's. Candy is too commonplace. New Year's card is not bad, but you won’t be surprised.
How to be in such a situation? It is best to do something with your own hands. And the best option would be a handmade New Year card. It is very nice to receive such a gift, besides it looks original.
To do the work, take:
1. The basis for the postcard is 15x15 cm in dark green.
2. Cardboard lime and red.
3. Design paper - 2 with a pattern, 1 plain green.
4. Decorative green ribbon with polka dots.
5. The lace is decorative.
6. Rhinestones are multi-colored.
7. The button is green.
8. Double-sided adhesive tape.
9. Glue, scissors, pencil, ruler.
From cardboard of green color we cut out a square of 14x14 cm. On the reverse side we glue the squares of double-sided tape.

We fix the square on a dark green base in the center.

We cut out a square from red cardboard measuring 13x13 cm, also fasten on a double-sided foam tape on top of a green square in the center.

Cut off about 13.5-14 cm of decorative ribbon and glue on the left. We make a small ribbon bow and fasten it below. You can attach a bow in another place at your discretion.

Cut Christmas trees from designer paper. Their height should be about 7-9 cm, width 5-7 cm.

For one of the Christmas trees we make a decorative element in the form of a button with a bow from a string. To do this, populate the lace on the button and tie a bow.

Then attach the element to the Christmas tree on the glue.

Now we will decorate the second Christmas tree, green. Take the lace, fix it on the back with glue and start wrapping it with the Christmas tree. At the bottom, back, you should also fix the lace with glue.

Decorate the same Christmas tree with rhinestones of various colors.

A card with three original Christmas trees is ready!
