Homemade Christmas Card and Gift Tags

Age: 6–9 years · Time: 45 min · Level: Easy

Stamp trees and stars and write a greeting. Perfect for your presents.

Materials

• white or light card stock (letter size)
• green, yellow, brown and red craft paint
• a cork, or a piece of potato that an adult cuts into a stamp
• a plate for the paint
• markers
• scissors
• hole punch
• string or a piece of yarn

Steps

1. Fold a sheet of card stock in half. This is the card.
2. Cut out a few rectangles, about 2 x 3 inches. These are the gift tags.
3. Dip the cork in green paint and stamp three rows: one dot at the top, two in the middle and three at the bottom. This makes a tree.
4. Stamp a yellow dot above the tree as a star. Paint a small brown trunk under the tree and a red heart at the bottom. Let it dry.
5. Write a greeting, like "Merry Christmas!", and who it is for.
6. Punch a hole in the corner of each tag and thread a string through it.
