The tiring long winter nights are behind us and ahead of us awaits only freshness, only new spring sensations, and most importantly, a warm, fresh and spring atmosphere, which brings with it the smell of trills, the aroma of spring grass, as well as simply new changes that are associated with weather conditions. Spring, in itself, is a very fabulous, fresh and fragrant time of year, in which the best qualities combine, which can be truly pleasant after the tiring long winter evenings. But it is precisely in this spring time of the year that I want to give my family, friends and loved ones only good things, only beautiful things, and only unforgettable things. So that you don't give it to present, but still the best thing is what will be done with your own hands. Even if this is an addition as a postcard, it is still the most pleasant and most valuable. Right now we will look at a master class on making such postcards.
For the master class we take:
  • Thick cardboard A4 format, purple, blue and light green;
  • Scrappaper of different shades and colors;
  • Pictures of spring and with different inscriptions;
  • Cutting out different flowers: flowers, leaves, napkins, butterflies;
  • Congratulatory inscriptions “Happy Holidays” and “Congratulations”;
  • Chiffon ribbons with rosettes in mint, blue and beige colors;
  • Mint and lilac polka dot ribbons;
  • Stamens are complex lilac, white and pink;
  • Poppy mint and beige;
  • Paper roses;
  • Half beads;
  • Curb hole punch;
  • Artificial wormwood branches;
  • Scissors, pencil, ruler, double-sided tape, glue stick.

We take all the sheets of cardboard and measure out 18*20 cm quadrangles from each.

Now we divide each one in half along the larger side and fold it in half.

Now we measure the satin ribbon, cut it into pieces of about 20 cm and glue two pieces of each on the front and back of the card bases.

Now we take scrap paper and cut it into 9.5*17.5 cm rectangles. We also cut small rectangles so that we can add them later as decoration.

We immediately glue one rectangle to the back of the postcard bases. And we need to decorate three rectangles. We glue napkins, pictures, twigs, and inscriptions on them.

We decorate all rectangles to your taste; it is better to tint pictures and inscriptions with an ink pad for greater beauty. Sew on all glued elements. Each element must be glued and sewn separately. You can insert napkins and flowers between the layers of pictures.

Now we need to glue all the decorated rectangles onto the bases of our postcards; we glue them with double-sided tape. We sew each side of the card on a typewriter.
