Birthday card for a man with his own hands

Choosing a card for a man is not an easy task. The process turns into a real test - after all, you want something that corresponds to attract attention, to make it clear that this man means to you. A birthday card for a man, made by own hands, can dispel all doubts, because there is nothing more interesting than a creative approach.

A birthday card for a man - scrapbooking

Tools and materials:

• sewing machine;
• colored cardboard;
• paper for scrapbooking ;
• pictures and inscriptions;
• decorating to taste;
• Scissors, clerical knife, ruler;
• adhesive, double-sided adhesive tape;
• inkpad.

For the postcard, I chose the steampunk style, because it may well come up as a teenager, and a fully held man. Next, I offer you a master class on creating such a postcard for men with their own hands.

Performance:

1. Prepare cardboard and paper, cutting them into parts of the right size.
2. Immediately prepare the inside of the postcard - paste a background image, which will serve as a place for congratulations.
3. And we will sew our pages.
4. Now we will prepare pictures, inscriptions and ornaments - it is better to take more, so that by comparison, choose the most suitable ones.
5. We paste the paper on the substrate.
6. And then we will compose a composition from our elements - do not glue everything at once, because you need to have the possibility of correction.
7. Having decided on the location, begin to stitch the parts in stages.

Now we will create an unusual fastener for our postcard:

1. Angles of small rectangles are cut, giving them the shape of a belt.
2. We glue the paper on both sides of the cardboard and stitch it.
3. Next, the ready "strap" is sewn to the cover.
4. And on the front part of the cover we mount the holder - it is done on the same principle as the "strap" itself, only a little smaller.
5. We sew metal ornaments - I have chosen gears.
6. And the final touch is that we glue the inner rectangles to the stem.

The resulting postcard will accurately attract attention, and the bulk jewelry will not let it get lost among others.

As you can see, making a postcard for a man with his own hands is not so difficult, original and unique, such creative ideas will surely be appreciated.
