There is little time left before the New Year, but you still have to do a lot of things. After all, home decoration, Christmas trees and the New Year's table are only part of the task for this holiday. Do not forget that you must not miss anyone and be sure to cook something for the New Year. Any little thing under the tree seems like a huge gift. But it is necessary, no matter what the surprise and congratulations, you should not forget about the most important point, the mandatory presence of a greeting card with wishes, which can also be done with your own hands. Moreover, now there are a lot of different scenery. With the help of which you can make beautiful and unusual postcards with your own hands.
To make such interesting houses here, we need to take:
• Watercolor paper format A3;
• Christmas paper for scrapbooking six sheets of 15 * 15 cm and one sheet with New Year's borders;
• Postcard-house template;
• New Year's pictures;
• New Year's cards;
• Laser cutting of snowflakes, 3 pieces;
• Organza ribbon bright red and bright green 25 mm wide;
• New Year's brads with a diameter of 10 mm;
• Stamp "Happy New Year";
• Ink black and green;
• Felled frames of salad and gold color, green curls from felling;
• Rhinestones are green and silver;
• Liquid spangles of gold and silver;
• Curb punchers;
• Pencil;
• Ruler and scissors;
• Double-sided tape;
• glue gun;
• Glue stick.

The most interesting thing about these cards is their shape, so first of all we need to use the template to cut out the basics for such cards. So, we take a template, cut out the connected houses.

You can cut with a window, you can without. We will make postcards without a window. Cut out three watercolor stems.

Fold them in half. Now we cut the template in half to make a single house and use this template to cut two houses for each postcard from New Year's scrapbook paper.

We look at the color scheme and select paper to harmonize with each other. It is advisable to take bright colors red, green, blue, brown, colors that are inherent in the New Year holiday.

We cut lace strips from the sheet with borders, we will glue them at the bottom of each blank from scrapbook paper.

We stamp and cut out three New Year's inscriptions, cut out three New Year's cards and three pictures. Pictures with inscriptions are best tinted around the edges.

We take one house and glue it with tape on a card, a picture and an inscription. We sew all the elements separately on a typewriter.

Now we tie bows from organza and fasten them with brads at the top of each house.

Now the scrap parts of the card are glued to the base with double-sided tape. We sew on each side of the houses with a machine. Now it remains to glue the scenery.

Glue the frames and curls with a glue stick, and glue snowflakes and rhinestones with a glue gun. Now with liquid glitter we will put dots in different places of the houses. After drying, the cards will shine beautifully and brightly.
