DIY postcard “With love”

When you love a person, you want to do something crazy, but at the same time very romantic, so that your loved one will not only be pleasant, but also quite interesting. Present, souvenirs or just some little things are given to a loved one, not necessarily for some holidays, they are given almost every day, and for absolutely no reason, the most important thing is that we love the person and want to please him every day, hour and every minute . If gifts are given by a guy or a man, what do they usually consist of? Mostly men give flowers, sweets, perfume, jewelry, Stuffed Toys, but for women it’s somehow a little more difficult. After all, you can’t give a man flowers, candy, toys and jewelry are also not particularly masculine gifts, well, you can still think about perfume, but what then can you give to your beloved man? It turns out that this is problematic.

After all, a woman and a girl also want to give their beloved man a gift, and one that he really likes and expresses the love and sincerity of his feelings.What could it be? After all, it’s so hard to surprise and please men? In this case, gifts that you can make with your own hands are very good; they express sincere love, honesty and devotion. Well, we will now consider what exactly can be done for the man we love.

Making a postcard

Take a sheet of watercolor, place it horizontally in front of you, and according to the diagram, first cut off a rectangle of 18*30.4 cm. This will be the size of the postcard when unfolded. On the prepared watercolor rectangle we measure the following parts of the postcard.

We look carefully at the diagram and fold the card along the internal and external curves.Now let's take scrap paper. We measure out whole pieces and pieces. We make the pieces with an openwork hole punch.

We collect pieces and whole parts into blanks and obtain the following finished scrap parts: two rectangles 4*17.8 cm, two rectangles 5.2*17.8 cm; one rectangle 10.8*17.8 cm. We cover the joints of the scrap blanks with grosgrain tape, and glue the pictures with double-sided tape.

Cut two pieces of ribbon with hearts, glue one on the first fold, and the second on the third bottom fold.

We stamp the inscription, glue it onto a large blank, and also stamp a heart on the blank itself.

We glue a picture on the heart. Now we sew each piece separately in fragments on a machine.

We glue it to the base and sew each one separately. Now we glue the red hollow heart on the second bend with PVA glue, and glue the heart with the picture on the top bend.

We decorate the card itself. We knit bows from ribbons, glue buttons, pendants, and bouquets. We fold the card, knit a bow, and fasten the hearts with a clothespin. The result is such a bright, and at the same time very tender “With Love” card.
