An anniversary in the life of every person is not just the date of the next birthday, but it is a round number, for example, 20, 30, 40, 50 years and so on. It doesn’t matter what the date is, what the number is, but the main thing is that the person feels somehow important and noble on this special day, since the closest, dearest and most important people in this person’s life came to congratulate him on this day. So you are going to go to someone’s anniversary, either a relative or an acquaintance, and you simply cannot do without a greeting card for the anniversary. And in order not to be a banal congratulator, you need to surprise the hero of the day with something and congratulate him especially, in a new way and with taste. So, a scrapbooking master class will help us very well with this, which will help us make not just a greeting card, but a complex fold-out anniversary card.
For the master class we take:
  • Pink pastel paper A3 format;
  • Paper for scrapbooking in pink shades, berm two sheets 30*30 cm;
  • Pictures: orchid flowers, roses, inscription;
  • Cutting: pink napkin, white pearl and lettuce leaves, butterflies, hearts;
  • Knitted flowers are white, pink and crimson;
  • Pink lace;
  • White ribbon with small pompoms;
  • Raspberry satin ribbon with white polka dots;
  • Pearl half beads;
  • Chiffon roses on a ribbon;
  • Happy Anniversary stamp and black ink;
  • Burgundy ink for tinting;
  • White cardboard;
  • Glue stick, double-sided tape, ruler, scissors and pencil;
  • Border hole punch.

We divide along the side that is larger into parts 8 cm * 16 mm * 8 cm. We divide and draw bend lines. Fold the base as in the photo.

We measure 9.5 cm from the bottom and draw lines to the corner along which we make oblique cuts. This way we get a half-open base for the postcard.

And also four irregularly shaped rectangles of the same size. Now we decorate the scrap paper with cuttings and pictures, including gluing a cardboard rectangle for the inscription.

We sew on all the elements that were glued to the scrap paper. Now all parts of the scrap paper need to be glued to the base using double-sided tape. Now all sides of the card from the front side need to be sewn on a typewriter.

    It looks very elegant. I've seen these crafts in stores, I always thought that this was factory work, not artisanal work. It turns out that you can sculpt such a miracle yourself. The work, of course, is very painstaking, it will take a lot of time, you need to be careful, but what an amazing result! For the holiday, parents will be especially pleased that such a delightful card was made by the hands of their relatives.
