Sharing is caring!

We all want to wish family and friends a happy and healthy holiday and new year, but it’s hard to do it right without looking generic. Buying cards in bulk leaves you with very limited designs to choose from, and purchasing pretty handcrafted cards can get really expensive. So this year, why not try your hand at making your own? With simple materials at home & some craft supplies, you can whip up some pretty DIY Snowman  cards in no time (and for a minimal cost). Plus, the extra handmade touch will show how much you’re thinking of loved ones and that your well wishes are genuine.

PS – This post was published in December 2010. I have edited it slightly and am republishing it this year. The card was made by Lil p when she was 4 . I had of course helped her with the finer details.
