Hey everyone! We’re continuing our preparations for the holidays. In today’s session, we’ll show you how to create a unique and creative Abstract Christmas Tree drawing, and turn it into a handmade Christmas card. Let’s get started!

To make everything work out for us, let’s prepare the following materials:

  • white paper.
  • Pencils, markers.
  • Ruler.
  • Black marker

How to Draw an Abstract Christmas Tree Step by Step

Take a regular A4-sized sheet of white office paper and cut it in half. This will give you two bases for DIY Christmas cards.

Leaving a 0.5 cm margin from each edge, draw an outline. In the center, draw a simple triangular Christmas tree.

Now, at different angles, use a ruler to draw straight lines intersecting the Christmas tree and the entire card in multiple places.

In the center of the triangular tree crown, let’s draw several circles. We’ll draw them using a simple pencil. By the way, no matter how many of these cards you make, the geometric pattern on each one will always be different. This way, every masterpiece will be unique.

Now comes the most interesting part. Let’s decorate each section in a unique way. It’s important to decide in advance the colors for the tree (triangle), the ornaments (circles), and the background. For each section, choose colors that complement each other but have different shades. To create a beautiful effect, select 4-6 shades for each color.

So, we have yellow-orange ornaments. The trunk will be in brown shades, and we also added gray and black.

For the Christmas tree, we chose shades of salad, emerald, and green. And we colored the background in shades of pink, red, and raspberry. Finally, when everything is done, we will outline the green beauty with a black marker, making the line thicker.

Wow, what a beauty! It’s truly mesmerizing and captivating to see such a unique design on the adorned Christmas tree. It feels like everything is shimmering and sparkling, as if it’s reflecting a myriad of colors.

How Kids Can Draw This

And this is the work of a 5-year-old child. You can see the diligent coloring of the Christmas ornaments, trunk, and even the tree itself. However, there was a little lack of patience and effort when it came to the background. But does it spoil the card? Not at all!

Two artworks together, not to compare and choose which one is better, but to show how differently, yet equally beautiful, such a Christmas card can be created by both an adult and a child. The only thing left is to add a personal message, and then give it as a gift to our loved ones and dear ones.
