Easiest Ways to Create your Circles:Here are a few ways in which you can easily create some circles for the card.
Instructions:Step 1: Grab your patterned piece of paper and trim it down to an A4 size.
Fold this sheet in 1/2 to make a card. Set aside the rest of the patterned paper so you can use it to make circles for the tree. Step 2: Trim down your white cardstock to around 5″ x 7.5″. Glue this piece down in the center on the front of your card. Step 3: Create around 20 circles in different sizes and from a range of colors. We love to mix up solid colors with some double-sided patterned paper. Step 4: Fold each of these circles in half. Step 5: Pop glue on one-half of the circles and glue these down in a triangle/tree shape on the patterned paper.
Step 6: Cut down a red piece of cardstock to around 4.5″ x 1″ in size. Cut a triangle shape out of each side of the rectangle to create a banner. (See photo below for visual example) Step 7: With a pencil draw a rectangle on your white paper that measures 3.5″ x 1″. Use some decorative edge scissors to cut around the edge of this border. Glue this down on top of the red banner you created in the previous step. Step 8: Neatly write your Christmas message such as ‘Merry Christmas’ to finish off your card.
Alternative ideas to using circles from the paper:If you don’t want to use paper circles, you can also create a similar card from:
How to Make this Craft Easier for Younger Kids:If your child is younger, you can always pre-cut all the elements for them so that they only have the task of folding and gluing down all the elements.

Hi, I’m Sam! I’ll be honest, I’m a total vinyl cutter addict! I could easily lose myself in a day filled with vinyl cutting projects! I have a whole career based on working with vinyl cutting machines! I worked with smaller vinyl cutters in a papercraft wholesale distribution warehouse. Later I coached those who were interested in turning their cutting crafts into small businesses. I have used all the machines that I recommend and have personal experience with both the positive and the negatives of each of these machines! I hope you find all the answers you are looking for, right here on my site! My Profiles
