8 Original and DIY Christmas Postcards to Make at Home

If you love traditional paper Christmas postcards, here are 8 very original DIY proposals. Crafts with painting, embroidery, and even tree twigs. Which one do you prefer?

With the illusion of receiving a Christmas greeting in the mailbox wishing you happy holidays and we are committed to the dedications via WhatsApp or in the form of an elf. This year be original and rewrite the Christmas cards as before. Receiving something personal is priceless. There are also many styles and ideas to inspire you.

1. CHRISTMAS WATERCOLOR POSTCARD

Do you master the watercolor technique? We propose a challenge: to design a Christmas postcard with fir trees painted in watercolor. Finish your work with a matching green bow, and we assure you that those who are lucky enough to receive these Christmas greetings will end up framing them.

2. 3D POINSETTIAS

Pinterest

The poinsettia always captivates with its beauty, whether it is natural or in the form of a Christmas card. To achieve a 3D design you will have to cut out several layers and glue them on top of each other. It will help you to choose different types and patterns of paper and cardboard and add some decorative motifs such as small diamonds.

3. SUSTAINABLE CHRISTMAS POSTCARD

Pinterest

Do you have cardboard to recycle on hand? Give them a new use by transforming them into Christmas postcards. If you want to follow the example in this image, fold the cardboard in half and paint several fir trees green. Next, cut out and glue a cardboard fir tree with the same shape and color (to stick it out of the cardboard you have to glue it with a piece of rolled tape). Finally, crown it with a star and write a congratulation.

4. A STRING AND A LOT OF IMAGINATION

Pinterest

What an original Christmas postcard! The string outlines the reindeer, the button has become its nose, and the sequins adorn its antlers. To complete the drawing, the eyes have been painted with a black marker. Bravo!

5. DESIGN YOUR CHRISTMAS POSTCARD WITH LETTERING

Pinterest

To design these simple but elegant Christmas cards, you have to be great at lettering, and have a gold marker!

6. RUSTIC CHRISTMAS POSTCARD

Pinterest

If you are a fan of the rustic and natural style, this is your postcard. Use some branches to create the Christmas tree and decorate it with a silver or gold star.

7. THE MOST LOVING CHRISTMAS CARD

Pinterest

Totally in love! And unique in the world because no two fingerprints are the same on the entire planet. Paint your finger the color you want and stamp your fingerprint to create two reindeer in love. Complete the drawing with a marker.

8. A PRESENT FOR YOU

Pinterest

Do not save the thread or the needle yet because you will need it for this Christmas postcard with simple and exquisite lines (or rather points).
