Materials and tools:

For one flower, we need two colors of paper. One of them is green, and the other can be anything you like.

First, we make the flower itself. Cut out a square from paper. Its size can be any. We fold the square diagonally corner to corner.

Now expand the resulting triangle and add the other two sides in the same way. In the middle you will get a cross of fold lines.

Now you need to fold the square in half horizontally.

And along the resulting horizontal fold line, it is necessary to bend the two sides inward so that a triangle is obtained.

As a result, we have formed a triangle on one side and on the other.
We raise its lower tops to the top.

And on the other hand the same.

A postcard has always been a distinctive sign of attention and a nice addition to a gift that is so easy to cheer up. It is especially nice to receive a handmade postcard. If it is made with your own hands, then you can put a special meaning, choose exactly what will please the recipient.


Since not everyone is strong in the design style that is most used in the manufacture of postcards, and not everyone has the necessary elements for decorating such gifts, we offer an affordable option for everyone to make a 3D postcard using a technique that is in no way inferior to classic scrapbooking.
Prepare colored square stickers, an A4 sheet of decorative cardboard, ribbons for packing green and white flowers, curly sequins, a paper or plastic mini butterfly, thermal gun, scissors.
A postcard with a 3D effect will be obtained due to voluminous origami tulips.


Each tulip is obtained from a square piece of paper. Office colored sticker just the right size for the job.






We fold the tulips according to the origami pattern. When making such small flowers, it is difficult to give them volume. To do this, you can carefully use a thin wooden stick or a rod from a pen, inserting it into the hole of the folded box and straightening the side walls.



The stem for a tulip needs a simple one, without a leaf. Just roll the same green office sticker into a tube. Insert the stems into the opening of the flower.


Let's make 7 tulips.



Cut 4-7 pieces of 20 cm from green plastic tape. On tulips, tie ribbons on the stalks. If the tape is wide, divide the ends into two parts and twist them with scissors.
The next step is to arrange the bouquet.


Fold a sheet of cardboard in half.





Arrange the origami tulips in the composition. If you are satisfied with the result, then using hot glue, begin to attach the flowers to the front surface of the folded cardboard sheet. Another glue for this work will not work, because. flowers do not have a smooth surface for gluing.
When all the flowers are fixed in place, we tie a bow from any suitable ribbon in a contrasting color. We fix with hot glue at the base of the bouquet.


It is worth adding a little sparkle to the card. Glue curly sequins around the edge of the card.


Well, then it remains to place a congratulation, picture, photo, poem inside the card.


The card turns out to be unusual and spectacular, making and giving such a card is a pleasure.

We offer you the idea of ​​​​a simple and beautiful postcard in the shape of a tulip. The postcard will require a minimum set of materials and its production will not take much time, which is especially important - after all, there are only a few days left before the March 8 holiday.

A tulip card can be made by both a child and an adult. A child can give such a card to his mother or grandmother. You can give such a card to a girlfriend or girlfriend. And if you make a few pieces, then you can present a whole bouquet as a gift, in each flower of which a congratulation and wish is hidden.

The materials we need:

  • Yellow (or other color) thick paper
  • Pen or pencil
  • Ornamental wire (chenille wire) in green textile winding
  • DIY glue
  • Craft knife or toothpick
  • 30 cm thin ribbon
  • Paper cut tulip template

The process of making a postcard-tulip

Print out the template from here: Template for a tulip.

We impose a sheet of paper with a template on our colored thick paper and with a sharp object (a pen, the blunt side of a knife blade), we circle the pattern along the contour. There should be a pressure mark on the colored paper.

Of course, you can cut the template along the contour with scissors, attach it to paper and circle it with a thin line with a pencil. Then the pencil line must be erased with a leaf.

Carefully cut out our blank along the extruded contour.

We fold the workpiece along the fold lines (dotted lines on the template).

And now it's time to write a congratulation on the middle part of our "tulip".

Fold the petals over and flip them upside down. We apply glue as shown in the photo. We apply a wire with a textile winding, which in our case acts as a stem, to the glue and press it. You must wait until the glue is completely dry.

From the remnants of colored paper, we cut out two identical blanks in the form of a sheet, as shown in the photo. We glue the “leaves” with each other so that the “stalk” is between them.

Next, we look at the photo and in each of the two “petals” we carefully pierce two holes through which we stretch the tape. To do this, you can use the edge of a knife or a toothpick. In the middle part of the blank, where your congratulations are written, you do not need to make holes, only in the “petals”. We pass both free ends of the tape into the holes on the left "petal" and pull the tape up. Close the left "petal". Then we thread the ends of the tape into the holes in the right “petal” and tighten. We tie the ends of the ribbon with a bow, cut them if necessary.

And here's what we got:

  • You can use any color paper for this postcard, not just yellow.
  • To give the card a more “natural” look, you can use brown wrapping paper for the flower or, for example, cut out a template from a brown paper bag, and use twine instead of ribbon.
  • Based on a tulip postcard, you can create a whole composition: for example, place it in a vase like a flower, or, if you want to please your beloved woman on a holiday with breakfast served in bed, put it on a tray of food.
  • You can make several of these tulip cards from paper of different colors and put them in a vase as a bouquet.
