How to make Mid-Autumn Festival greeting cards by hand as follows:
1. Prepare materials and tools. Choose card stock of different colors and textures as your base material. Prepare scissors, glue or double-sided tape, colored pens or markers, rulers and other tools as needed.
2. Determine the size and shape of the greeting card. Greeting cards can be designed in different sizes and shapes as required. In this example we will make a square greeting card. Fold a square piece of cardboard into a triangle, then fold the two corners to the center line, and unfold it to form an envelope-style shell.
3. Make the interior of the greeting card. Depending on your needs, different colors and textures of card stock can be used to create the interior of the card. Cut a piece of cardboard into a square the same size as the outer shell, then fold it into a triangle.
4. Decorate the greeting card shell. Use colored pens or markers to write blessings on the greeting card shell or draw some patterns, such as the moon, stars, rabbits, etc., to add a festive atmosphere. You can also use a gold or silver pen to add some special effect.
5. Add interior decoration. On the inside of the greeting card, you can draw some patterns or write blessings to express your blessings to your family and friends. You can also use different colored pens or different fonts to add visual interest.
6. Paste the internal structure. Glue the inner structure of the greeting card to the inside of the outer shell. Use glue or double-sided tape to stick them firmly to ensure the card's firmness and stability.
7. Improve the details. Add some decorative elements to the appearance of the greeting card, such as applying some sparkling glitter or using a gold pen to draw some patterns on the card paper to make the card more beautiful.
8. Signature and gift. Write your name or a special mark on the back of the card so your friends and family know who the card is from. Finally, put the greeting card into a beautiful envelope and write the recipient's name and address.
Precautions for making handmade greeting cards
1. During the production process, pay attention to the safe use of scissors and other tools to avoid injuries. When pasting, pay attention to the location and firmness of the pasting to ensure the stability of the greeting card. When designing patterns and text, you should choose according to your own creativity and preferences to make the greeting card more personalized. After the production is completed, be careful to save the greeting card to avoid loss or damage.
2. Pay attention to alignment. Pay attention to alignment when folding to ensure the neatness and beauty of the greeting card. Attach transparent film. If you want to be more refined, you can put a layer of transparent film on the cover of the greeting card to increase the gloss of the card.
