A Dozen Hand-painted Paper Collage Christmas Cards

The very first greeting card I ever sold also happened to be my very first attempt at making a hand-painted paper collage!

It had taken me a long time and I had ended up with painted paper all over my kitchen, sticky hands and a very sore back from sitting too long, making sure I cut the shapes accurately! So I was all the more thrilled when sale notification emails just kept rolling into my inbox!

That was five years ago and as I have gradually improved and speeded up what was originally a very tricky and time-consuming process, collage has become possibly my favourite medium for making greeting cards. And each year, I have produced at least one new design.

Here are just a few - beginning with my very first one, maybe a bit ambitious for a beginner but it's very popular!

These are just a few examples of each design but there are lots more in my store, some with non-English greetings or alternative messages, many of them ready for you to personalize.

12 Christmas Cards: Hand-painted Paper Collage Designs.

I first discovered the joys of hand-painted paper collage when I was looking into ways to illustrate a little poem I had written to accompany my reading program.

My very first attempt at a collage was a 'Snowman' Christmas card and it was immediately popular when I uploaded it to Greeting Card Universe! I made another one (the reindeer) in time for the following Christmas and it sold out quickly in various local shops.

So each year since, I have added new collage Christmas Cards to my online stores. Most of them are available with various greetings, such as Season's Greetings, or a non-English language greeting.

To see them all, visit my Greeting Card Universe store and use the search box, just below the butterfly, typing in: Christmas Collage.

Some of these designs have lent themselves to Christmas goodies as well as greeting cards - tote bags, coffee mugs, decorations and matching Christmas postage.
