FEELING FESTIVE<br />

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 />
