This year you can easily design your own Christmas cards for friends and family. Simply remove the cap from the edding metallic colourpens and off you go! Whether you prefer shimmering gold or ornate silver, you can use the edding 1200 with its water-based pigment ink to personalise each card with a unique “Merry Christmas” greeting. Choose from six brilliant metallic shades: red, dark-blue, green, violet, gold and silver, all of which are excellent on dark paper or card.

Step-by-step

Step 1

Cut your card to double the size you want, then fold in half. Write “Merry Christmas” in bold letters on the front of the card.

Step 2

Use the hole punch to make a small hole on the right hand side of the front and the left hand side of the reverse of the card, thread the ribbon through and tie a bow to secure. You can now add little stars and other decorative shapes to finish it off.
