Christmas<br />
crafts<br />
with Dawn Topliss<br />
Make your own Christmas Card Holder<br />
You will need<br />
Red and green card<br />
Patterned Christmas papers<br />
Tartan ribbon and embellishments<br />
Strong glue, scissors and ruler<br />
Mini pegs<br />
Toilet roll inner tube<br />
Method<br />
1. Cut four pieces of red card 11cm x 21cm.<br />
2. Cut four pieces of green card 8cm x 21cm.<br />
3. Cut patterned papers to match 0.5 cm less<br />
than plain.<br />
4. Use the toilet roll inner to gently roll each<br />
piece and bring edges together.<br />
5. Round all corners with your scissors. Glue<br />
patterned papers onto plain pieces and use pegs<br />
to hold together until dry. You should now have<br />
four red bows and four green bows.<br />
6. Cut two squares from red card 9cm x 9cm<br />
and one in green card 6.5cm x 6.5cm.<br />
7. Place one 9cm red square on your work<br />
surface. Gently bend the bottom of your red<br />
bows up about 3cm to flatten. Use strong glue to<br />
attach to your red panel on all four sides leaving<br />
the middle open.<br />
8. Repeat with the green bows and<br />
green square.<br />
9. Now glue your green set of bows on top of<br />
your red set.<br />
10. Cut your ribbon to 132cm. Fold in half and<br />
glue under the base. Cut another piece 36cm to<br />
make a hanging loop. Glue in place at the top.<br />
11. Glue your remaining red square onto the<br />
at<br />
back of your holder to cover any cut edges.<br />
12. <strong>Dec</strong>orate with a Santa picture, poinsettia,<br />
pieces of ribbon and punched snowflakes or your<br />
own embellishments.<br />
Your Christmas Card Holder is now complete<br />
and ready to attach your Christmas cards to the<br />
ribbons with your mini pegs.<br />
