Not so much in summer big holidays, nevertheless, this does not mean that in the warm season there are no birthdays, weddings and anniversaries. It is for this occasion that I propose to make a very simple and positive summer card with a flowering tree, which you can make with your children so that they do not get bored during the summer holidays.

  • a sheet of thick, double-sided colored A4 paper for the base
  • brown paper for tree trunk
  • colored paper for the crown
  • scissors, simple pencil
  • glue for paper

Making a summer postcard with your own hands

Unlike scrapbooking postcards, you won’t need any special materials or tools, so you can even make such a postcard in the country. To begin with, we define colors future flowering tree: it is optimal to use 3-4 shades that are combined with each other.

Advice: it will be interesting to make 4 such postcards with a crown different color corresponding different times of the year.

We bend a sheet of paper for the base in half, if desired, slightly rounding the corners with scissors. Now we print or transfer the template to tracing paper. We'll need to cut enough a large number of petals of various sizes. The easiest way to do this is by folding a sheet of paper in half and applying a petal template to one of the sides, so that the fold lines (marked with a dotted line in the figure) match.

The number of petals and their sizes can be varied arbitrarily, given that one full-fledged flower will need 8 parts. Blanks can be immediately laid out on the basis, roughly planning the ratio of colors and sizes.

We glue the tree trunk in the center and lay out the finished petals around it, forming the final composition.

Please note that only the lower part of the petal needs to be glued, leaving the upper “wing” free. We start gluing first with the largest parts of the composition.

Advice: in addition, you can lighten or darken the core of the flowers with colored pencils to match, outline the bark on the tree with a black pen, easily tint the edges of the postcard and add any other details to your taste.

The summer postcard is ready, it remains only to sign and present to the addressee!
