Your best friend or loved one is having a holiday - a birthday, a promotion at work, a wedding or just a small party - and your gift does not shine with originality? With this article, you will be able to decorate it with a twist and teach it with dignity. Taking into account the theme for the holiday, tastes and interests of a friend, with a little effort and a pinch of imagination, you will pleasantly surprise everyone around you!
It is necessary
Wrapping paper, scissors, scotch tape, paper, rag ribbons, colored paper, old magazines, glue, colored pencils, felt-tip pens, acrylic paints, brushes, decorative glitter, plastic
Instructions
Step 1
The original design of the greeting card:
Come up with a funny poem.
Subscribe with the name of your favorite birthday cartoon hero.
Cut out letters from an old magazine and paste them into a postcard.
Make fun origami out of colored paper, create a composition of bright animals, a plastic flower and decorative sequins.
Draw a treasure map in the card, let the hero of the occasion find the gift himself.
Write your congratulations with invisible ink.
Step 2
If you decide to gift a regular wooden photo frame, try giving it a touch of originality with paints. If the area of the frame allows, make a collage on an interesting topic. For example: children's photos of the birthday man, his profession, hobby, etc.
If your friend is a doctor, frame a photo of him in a work setting, and paint or paste medical pictures on the margins of the frame. Make a syringe or any other medical instrument out of plastic. Stick to the frame, cover with clear varnish, let dry.
Step 3
In the same way, you can arrange a regular photo album.
Try to choose an album that has fields for recording comments on the photo. Thus, you can attach photos where your friend is depicted as a medical student, and it is ridiculous to sign them. In the future, he himself will fill this album, and after many years your gift will become an indispensable attribute of a nice presentation of the family.
Step 4
Wrapping paper and satin ribbon will help you to wrap your gift beautifully. Nowadays, their assortment is so huge - you just have to show a little imagination. If you do not have experience with packaging, it is better to leave the case to a professional in a specialty store.
Beautiful fabric can also replace paper.
Step 5
If your friend's sense of humor and your finances allow you, you can arrange a well-known "surprise in the cake". And it is not at all necessary for a beautiful girl to jump out of it, it could be a super hero from a comic book or even the president himself!
