The Christmas season is upon us, and here at Papermilldirect, we simply can’t believe how quickly it has come around. The Halloween decorations are down, the bonfires put out, and so now is the time to think about Christmas and – more importantly – making those Christmas cards to send out to your friends and family in plenty of time.
More ideas…
When it comes to getting crafty this season, it may feel as though there is an infinite number of people to send your cards to and buying shop bought cards can total up to a hefty amount of money. However, you can save plenty of money, time, and give a personal touch this festive season by opting for homemade cards.
Everyone has photos around the house, whether this is an old collection in the attic of the family wearing Santa hats circa 1980s, or a family portrait taken a while back.
Utilising these photos cannot only save you time, but plenty of money. However, if you don’t have a Christmas style photo laying around – do not fear, as this is where the power of craftcard making paper comes in handy – simply make use of red and white card and pop a Santa hat on everyone’s head.
Using photos is a great way to reduce your budget and to create a personal and fun Christmas card that your friends and family will love for years to come!
