Christmas Cards

If you are considering making your own Christmas cards all you need is a little bit of inspiration to get you started. Just sit down with a piece of paper and a pen and start a mini brainstorming session. The Christmas card ideas will soon come flooding in.

One of my favourite ways of finding inspiration for my card making projects is to picture myself out for a walk. This walk could take place anywhere you like, for example down by the river or in the local park or even in your own street. For Christmas ideas I like to picture winter scenes so I just add snow and any people you may meet would be well wrapped up in hat, gloves and scarves. All you have to do then is find a way to transfer these images into your card designs. Some people choose to sketch, others choose abstract design.

Use your pen and paper to jot down all these ideas that you get, and make sure that you add as much detail as possible into your brainstorming notes. This will make it easier for you to picture the image again. For example 'down at the river' will not be enough of a note for you to picture the winter scene, you would have to add more descriptions on what you had seen in this image.

When you start designing your cards, you will find that more ideas come to you as you work. Please take the time out to write down these Christmas card ideas and this will help you create more masterpieces.
