Tampon christmas cards
"Christmas cards" should also be known as "How to use a tampon in a crafty way".
I am all about recycling and use stuff that is near so I always use a tampon for making these cards. I think it is more pretty with the wavy pattern in the beard? Anyawys, these cute cards brings out a big smile on most faces.
Excuse my english, this is not my mother tounge. Feel free to correct my language! ;)
Good luck!

Step 1Two pieces of colored paper, wiggly eyes and a tampon. Pink paper for the hat and green paper for the background.
-
Step 2Cut out the hat and glue it on to the background. Put the eyes on the hat.
-
Step 3How to open up a tampon is not always a simple task. S
tart with the bottom (with the string) and try to open it up so it looks like a flower or a mushroom.
You will now see there is a thin layer on the outside of the tampon - take that layer off. Now you can "open it up".
-
Step 4This is what an "open tampon" looks like. Take off the string and rub it up a bit (so it will be more soft).
It is time to form the beard!
-
Step 5Try cutting it and tear it apart so you get the perfect beard. Also round up the edges so it will fit the face. I use the hat as directions for the size.
-
Step 6Glue the beard to the background beneath the hat and eyes. If you are lazy you can finish up here ...
-
Step 7... and if you want more feeling to your cards: add eyebrows!
Just take some leftover cotton from your tampon and roll it with a little blue between your fingers or just glue them on as furry unibrows.
