DIY XMAS Cards!

Materials needed:

 Drawing block

 Plastic wrapper/ Book plastic cover/ Zip lock

 Glitter/ Metallic confetti

 Scotch tape

 A pair of scissors

 Glue stick

Buttons

Additional materials:

Pencil

Markers

DIY confetti card:

Fold the drawing block into half.

Then draw a shape on the drawing block using pencil. (I drew a triangle.)

Cut the shape out of the drawing block.

Then make a simple plastic wrap to contain the metallic confetti. (If you have a ziplock, just fill it with the confetti! It is important that the plastic wrap is better than the shape you have cut out!)

Tape the plastic wrap to the drawing block with the shape that has been cut out.

Take a piece of drawing block and paste it over.

I used washi tape to cover the rough edges that has another piece of drawing block.

Then use marker and decorate the cover with the confetti!

I also made a square shape!

DIY Christmas glittery card:

I drew different sizes of circles using pencil.
Then applied glue stick on the circles.
Next, I poured glitter on the sticky area.

With a black marker, I finally drew lines and outlined the circle!
