We make an original postcard to my grandmother with my own hands

Every family with a child celebratesa huge number of different holidays. This could be, for example, grandma's birthday, International Women's Day (March 8), New Year and many other holidays. Adults can give each other gifts without putting in any effort: go to the store and buy something, or just order it online. But what can a child give his grandmother?The answer is obvious.Children are an endless craving for creativity, and any grandmother is always pleased to receive some homemade children's souvenir as a gift from her beloved grandchildren. One of the most universal gifts of this type is a postcard. And what kind of postcard it will be depends on the imagination of the child and his parents, who, of course, will help him please his dear grandmother.With the help of this article we will make a postcard inin the form of a vase with flowers. What do we need for a simple, but original and interesting postcard? - a set of colored paper (necessarily with green color); - scissors; - a regular pencil (to mark the cut lines), a compass (or round objects of three different diameters) will also not hurt; - materials for fastening: single-sided tape, glue (preferably a "pencil"), a stapler will also not be superfluous. So, we have collected everything we need, and now we proceed to manufacturing. 1. First of all, you need to decide on the number of flowers that will be placed in our vase. You should not overload the postcard with a large number of elements, so it is best to make three or five flowers. Then, using a compass (or outlined coins, caps, etc.) on paper of different colors (any except green), draw circles that should be of three different diameters in size. If you decide to make three flowers, then you need three circles of each diameter, and if five flowers, then, accordingly, five circles. You can also increase the number if you still want to make a larger bouquet. 2. The next step is gluing the upper parts of our flowers. Take all the circles of a large diameter and lay them out in front of you. Then take all the circles of a medium diameter and glue them onto the large circles. The last step is gluing the circles of a small diameter on top of the medium circles. Make sure that the colors of the glued parts differ. 3. It's time for green paper. Cut out as many rectangles as there are flowers, and then fold them into a tube. The stems for our flowers are ready. 4. Now you need to attach the stems to our flowers. It is most convenient to do this with tape, since the glue will not hold the elements securely enough. Place our stems on the back of the glued circles and glue them with a piece of tape. 5. The collected flowers need to be fastened together so that our bouquet does not fall apart. To do this, fold them so that all the stems intersect just below the middle of their length, then fasten them together with a stapler. This part of the stems will not be visible, and the stapler will not spoil the appearance. 6. It's time to assemble the vase and the base for it. Take a whole sheet of paper of any color and fold it in half (the fold should be located in the same way as, for example, on a double notebook sheet). From paper of a different color, cut out a square or rectangle of such a size that your flowers fit in it, and bend small strips from two opposite sides. Glue this element approximately to the middle of the lower edge of one of the sides of the folded sheet of paper. Our vase is now on a stand. 7. All that remains is to place the flowers in the vase. Further actions depend on your imagination. If you wish, you can draw something on the vase, write wishes on the stand or glue petals to the flowers. As a result, your card will look like this:And if you show a little patience, imagination and handicraft skills, then even like this:
