Take a sheet of heavy paper and fold it in half. On the front cover of the card, first draw a Christmas tree, using coloured pencil. Avoid using ink pens because you will find it difficult to make the desired changes in case you made any mistake while drawing. The size of tree should not occupy the entire area of the front cover. Try to make it at the centre of the page so that you can write or paste something on each four sides of the paper.
Apply brown colour to the tree itself and the branches and use simple green colour to demonstrate the leaves of the tree. Now draw coloured balls hanging with the branches of the tree and write “Marry Christmas” on top of the page. Lastly, write a greeting message to the recipient inside the card.
You can also apply glitter on the card. Wrap up the card in a sheet and tie a ribbon on it to look more beautiful. -
