    Holiday Cards

    1. Trace the woodcut shape as your template for the card. Cut out shape with scissors.

    2. Collage on various papers and photocopies with holiday themes.

      Note: An alternate technique is to rubber stamp or paint a piece of cardstock to use as your shape background.

    3. If pieces of paper are hanging off the edge of the card, trim with scissors.

    4. To make a hanging angel ornament, cut a second pieced of cardstock in the shape of the card and sandwich the silk flower petals in between to create the wings and add a piece of ribbon to the top of the card to hang.
