Let's Make Cards

by Cindy A. Littlefield
Reindeer holiday cardGot some little elves with time on their hands? Invite them to help out in a special holiday workshop, creating season's greetings for everyone on your family's mailing list. Using four super-simple techniques and such kid-friendly materials as glue dots and stickers, they'll be turning out festive, personalized cards in no time.

Our ideas for creative greetings range from Holiday Lights and festive tree designs to Joyful Tidings, a Wreath of Names, a textured Christmas Cactus, and a fun photo frame. We haven't forgotten Santa, either. And these reindeer cards are sure to get the thumbs-up from kids:
