So, how to design a wall newspaper for Victory Day, guided by the example that Olga demonstrates? In fact, this task is not so difficult, especially since there are ready-made templates for cutting out a number of elements, as well as a selection of photographs of the war years (from open sources) used to create the collage.
Materials for the wall newspaper can be downloaded here:
From a creative point of view, the process promises to be very interesting, because several techniques are involved here, in particular, cutting, trimming, and paper plastic. And you will need to think carefully about the construction of the composition (although you can copy it in general terms).
In general, there is a lot of work, but if you design a wall newspaper with the whole class, then things will get done very quickly.
Let's start in order.
Print out letter templates for phrases on plain office paper. "We remember!" And "We are proud!".
Cut out the letters with a slight allowance. After attaching the template to the foil (gold) cardboard with a stapler, cut out the letter with a utility knife.
Glue the letter onto a background in a contrasting color. Cut out the backing with small allowances (1-2 mm) relative to the letter.
Stick pieces of bulky double-sided tape on the reverse side (if you don’t have bulky tape, you can use regular tape).
Prepare the remaining letters in the same way.
This is what the letters look like on a wall newspaper.
Number 9 and the word "MAYA" are formed using the trimming technique. From corrugated paper, cut many squares with a side of about 1 cm.
Print and cut out the templates.
Note: the nine template without markings is used when trimming in one color, and the template with markings is used when trimming in the colors of the St. George ribbon. In addition, you can use templates in color - in this case, small mistakes made by children will not be noticeable.
Apply clear double-sided tape or glue to the template area. Take a square of paper, press the blunt end of the ballpoint pen rod to the center, cover the rod with paper and roll the workpiece with your fingers.
Glue the resulting blank onto the template. Glue all these elements quite tightly to each other (more details on the trimming techniques can be found here: http://stranamasterov.ru/technics/parting-off).
The work is simple, but painstaking. However, if you perform it with several hands, it’s a completely different calico. :) For more details about how it was, see Olga’s blog.
Now about photos for collage.
As I already mentioned, the archive with materials for the wall newspaper for Victory Day already contains a selection of war photographs. You just need to bring them to the desired size and print them. Or you can immediately print the file “War photographs (for printing)”, which Olga prepared for her wall newspaper.
Photos can be cut out with curly scissors (for example, with an imitation of a “torn edge”).
Tint the edges with a brown stamp pad - “antique”. In the absence of a stamp pad, gouache and a piece of sponge are quite suitable as a replacement. Don’t use a lot of paint and be sure to try it on a rough draft first.
From kraft paper, cut out a backing slightly larger than the photo. Crumple and straighten the backing.
Glue the photo onto the backing.
Order of the Patriotic War
To make the order you will need templates (available in the downloadable materials for the wall newspaper). Print them out on plain office paper and cut out the elements individually with small allowances. Staple the templates to colored foil cardstock and cut out the pieces.
The round part numbered 2 (with the words “PATRIOTIC WAR”) is printed immediately “clean”, in color.
Punch and accordion-fold the parts of the corrugated base and the star. Glue the strips (their templates are located to the right of the star) onto the inner surfaces of the side faces of the star’s rays, they will help keep their shape.
Glue together all the parts of the order one by one. It is better to glue the star to the corrugated base, as well as the finished order to the wall newspaper, with hot glue.
The rifle and saber are not exactly placed here, so when creating your own model of the order, be guided by the original.
In the center of the wall newspaper there is a printed poem by M. Vladimov “When we were not yet in the world...” (also included in the materials), framed in a simple frame made of two-layer corrugated cardboard (the top layer is separated from the usual three-layer cardboard).
And one more element of the composition is a bouquet of paper carnations, entwined with a St. George ribbon. I think the technique for making such flowers is familiar to many. And if not yet, then you can fill the gap in the “Land of Masters”: http://stranamasterov.ru/technics/napkins_details
This is the wall newspaper the guys made for Victory Day.
We hope that the presented design ideas will be useful to you.
Happy upcoming 70th anniversary of the Great Victory! Peace and prosperity, health, love and happiness to you!
And may the thread of memory about the great feat of our relatives, about the Victory and the price that had to be paid for it never be cut off!
Sincerely,
Inna Pyshkina and the KARTONKINO team
Victory Day is an extremely significant holiday, celebrated annually in Russia on a grand scale. They prepare for it very carefully at all levels. City streets, facades and interiors of buildings are always decorated with flags and traditional symbols. Bright and colorful posters for May 9, printed or made by hand, are inserted into city lights, windows of shops, schools and office buildings. If you have not yet decided how exactly to decorate your room for the bright holiday of victory, use our ideas and tips. They will help you adequately prepare for a joyful day and create a warm, sincere and festive atmosphere at school, kindergarten or office center.
Posters for May 9: “Victory Day”, “Remember...” and others
For Victory Day, you can choose different thematic posters. A bright, catchy, optimistic version with a warrior-liberator will look great in a school classroom, a student auditorium, a reputable office or a department of a large bank.
The poster, designed in light tones, looks very festive and spring-like. The victorious symbolism in it is harmoniously combined with a bouquet of flowers, a wide St. George ribbon and flashes of fireworks.
The poster looks relevant and attractive, combining a black and white image framed with bright shades symbolizing the victorious banner of Russia.
From May 9, it will be appropriate to decorate the premises of a kindergarten, school classrooms where primary grades study and the festive assembly hall with modern, cool and cheerful posters.
Poster for May 9th with your own hands, how to make it correctly
Making a poster for May 9th with your own hands is not that difficult. You just need to be patient, don’t rush anywhere, devote a certain amount of time to the process and put a piece of your soul into the matter. Only in this case will you get a spectacular, bright and attractive product that reflects your personal attitude to the feat of veterans and the great holiday.
For comfortable work you will need a sheet of whatman paper, a set of figured rulers, colored paper, scissors, gouache or felt-tip pens, scissors and a sharp stationery knife with a retractable blade. First you need to choose a suitable picture and determine its location on the poster. When this stage is passed, you can think about the title and accompanying text (poems, songs, congratulations, etc.). Important additions to the layout will be traditional thematic symbols (eternal flame, orders and medals for valor and bravery, carnations, St. George's ribbon, etc.). Preferred bright, rich and rich colors. Dark, mournful shades are best avoided. The poster should look optimistic and inspire pride in the glorious feat performed by veterans during the war.
If you can’t draw a poster yourself, use ready-made templates. You can decorate them to your own taste or fill them with thematic text and photographs. To enhance the visual effect, it would be a good idea to decorate the sheet with voluminous flowers made of velvet or smooth paper of different shades. They will give the poster an elegant and solemn look.
Poster templates for May 9, original and bright
Poster templates for May 9 are special blanks with a color or monochrome background and traditional holiday paraphernalia. You can place any text on them, print or handwrite poems on military themes, holiday greetings to veterans, combatants and home front workers, verses of victory songs, photographs or drawings.
The simplest version of the template is a bright red base, decorated on one side with the traditional symbols of the great holiday - the St. George ribbon, a scarlet five-pointed star and an obelisk of golden leaves.
The template with victory symbols located at the bottom of the poster looks no less impressive and bright. The rich red background is beautifully diluted with orange rays extending from the main design, symbolizing the sunrise over our free and strong Motherland.
The poster template for May 9 with a large and catchy central symbolic composition looks interesting and extraordinary. On the empty fields of a light orange shade located along the edges, you can place a large amount of text and supplement it with thematic photographs.
For those who don’t know how to draw, but still want to create a holiday poster, a black and white outline template will help out. You just need to decorate it with colored pencils or paints and provide it with a catchy title.
A wall newspaper for May 9 with your own hands is a good opportunity to add solemnity to the Victory Day. In this master class we will make a wall newspaper “a soldier’s diary”, with three-dimensional elements.
Necessary materials:
- Whatman paper - 2 pieces in A1 and A2 formats;
- colored paper or red cardboard - 2 sheets of A4;
- gouache - 6 or more colors;
- natural flat brushes (synthetics can also be used) - the largest available;
- hard pencil;
- grater;
- 1-2 tea bags;
- tea container;
- acrylic glue with shimmer;
- glue in a sticker for paper;
- foil, preferably with a paper base on one side;
- crepe (floral) paper - 1 meter each in green and red;
- St. George's ribbon (not necessary, you can make it yourself);
- pre-war photo of a girl (you can use a black and white printout);
- old newspaper;
- lighter;
- clean cotton rag;
- scissors;
- ruler;
- stationery knife;
- compass (not necessary, you can use improvised objects, for example, dish lids, etc.);
- sponge;
- blanks with military-themed poems or memoirs of WWII soldiers.
Step-by-step instruction
We need to start work by preparing the workplace: we will need a desk, if it is large enough for A1 Whatman paper format, or free space on the floor.
The first step will be to make aged paper to imitate excerpts from a soldier's diary. To do this, brew strong tea in the proportion of 300 ml per 2 tea bags. While the tea is cooling, you can begin marking out the main Whatman paper.
We will place our A1 sheet on the table or floor. To delineate the space for the diary from the area for creating inscriptions, let's attach whatman paper A2 to our “base” and draw borders.
With an indentation of 10-15 centimeters from the top edge, we mark the place along the inscription “Victory Day”.
When the tea leaves have cooled, you can begin to “aging” the Whatman paper. Having laid out the A2 sheet on the table, we evenly distribute the tea leaves over the area in any convenient way, starting with a brush and ending with a sponge.
Please note that for a greater “old” effect, the paper must first be wrinkled. Also, to enhance the effect of tea, you can simply dip the entire piece of paper into the container, but this must be done carefully so that when you remove the paper, it does not tear or soften. Therefore, in order not to overdo it, it is enough to apply a strong tea leaves on top of the sheet. When the sheet has softened, transfer it to dry on the balcony or any dry place for half an hour.
We mark the boundaries of the nine on colored paper using a compass or, as shown in the photo, using an ordinary saucer.
Using a utility knife, cut out the number 9 along the outlined outline.
Note: it is better to place a piece of plywood or any other solid base under the paper so as not to cut through the table.
Using scissors, we cut out a 7x20 cm base for the word “May” from the remaining sheet of red paper along the previously outlined contour.
We put all the preparations aside for now and return to the war diary, which by this time has dried out a little. To give it a finished look we use fire.
While the sheet is not yet completely dry, touching it with a lighter will add yellowness around the edges. To make it look even more realistic, you can tear off the edges a little before firing. This will make the wall newspaper look more voluminous. Result compared to white paper:
Now you can begin to create a symbol of peace - a clear sky. And for this we will use the blurring technique. Let's prepare blue and white gouache, a sponge, a cotton rag and clean water in a jar. Please note that it is more convenient to apply gouache to a large area with a small brush if it is first diluted to an almost liquid mushy state.
We apply paint to the Whatman paper from top to bottom, from left to right, to create a graduated color effect.
When the whatman paper is completely covered with gouache, wait a few seconds for the paint to dry a little. Washing is needed to make the color uniform, since gouache can often appear with characteristic dark stripes. So, let's use a wet rag, as shown in the video:
When the base for the sky is ready, apply white clouds with a sponge. Note: the sponge must be dry, the paint must not be diluted, and the paper base must be damp. This will make the clouds look more choppy and airy.
Apply the white color with light movements, distributing the clouds over the entire area of the Whatman paper.
To complete the sky, let's make a few finishing touches. Using a sponge, use a circular motion to add curls (counterclockwise) as shown below.
While the base of the wall newspaper dries, we’ll add a few entries to the soldier’s diary. The page on the left symbolizes the beginning of the war - here we will place a poem or any other note from those times (you can use the memoirs of soldiers).
The right side symbolizes victory and the end of the war. After the entries are ready, we will paste a photo of the girl onto the diary. If a print is used, it can also be aged with tea. To do this, it is dipped for 2 seconds in a container with tea leaves, and then ironed for several seconds (first, you need to put the printout between two clean sheets or use a newspaper).
We glue the photo of the girl onto the diary using glue in a sticker.
In the previously designated places on the pages of the diary, we make two holes using a stationery knife. From a piece of foil measuring 5x5 cm, we twist an element for fastening the pages and thread it through, twisting the loops at the bottom so that the foil does not slip out.
We make a stencil for the medal of glory (you can also use a printout). Using the finished stencil, cut out a star from foil measuring 7x7 cm using a stationery knife.
Use acrylic glue to glue the star onto the diary pages. Since the base has already dried, you can glue all the blanks.
It takes a long time to make a wall newspaper for May 9 with your own hands, so making tulips can be simplified by observing only external symbolism.
We will need: crepe paper of both colors, scissors, glue and newspaper.
The first stage is flower stems. Roll up the newspaper from the corner, as shown in the photo
Important: the stem should be thin, since being thick it loses flexibility. We glue the finished rolled newspaper along the edge.
Cut a thin strip of green crepe paper along the pattern, 60 centimeters long. One strip is enough to wrap one stem. Apply glue to the beginning of the strip and glue it to the upper base of the stem.
We stretch the strip around the newspaper tube in a spiral, as shown in the video
By analogy, we do the rest of the stems. When this stage is completed, cut out leaves (5-6 pieces) 12-15 cm long and 4-6 cm wide. Glue them at the base of the stem.
Now let's move on to the petals. For one tulip you will need 6 petals - this is 9 strips of crepe paper 7x60 cm. Prepare the paper - cut 9 strips 7x60 cm, fold them in a stack and cut in half - you get 18 sheets 7x30.
We form the petals as shown in the video.
We attach the finished petals with glue to the stems, 6 pieces for each, evenly distributing them around the perimeter. First, the first 3 are attached, then the rest, covering the joints between the previous petals.

When the tulips are ready, you can proceed to the final stage of our DIY wall newspaper.
The final part is writing the name of the holiday against the blue sky. So, let's draw the upper part, previously prepared for the inscription. In 1.5 cm increments, draw letters with a pencil measuring 5 cm in length and 7.5 cm in height.
Note: to design the font in a characteristic pre-war style, you can use a stencil or regular printout. Here the letters were applied manually, in the Cyrillic font Real Truth. (imitation of the wartime Pravda newspaper font).
After the gouache has dried, we proceed to gluing the main elements of the wall newspaper. For greater naturalness, you can add a kink or bend to the tulip stems - the twisted newspaper base is quite flexible.
For the finishing touches, add a few drops of silver glitter acrylic glue to the tulip petals.
Front-line veterans who fought on the front lines were often reluctant to remember and talk about combat operations. But memories of the happy day of May 9, 1945 always occupied a significant place in their stories. About the great joy, the desire to live, love, create, which then gripped all people; about the unprecedented universal positive energy of this bright day. We reflect particles of this energy today in special posters and wall newspapers for Victory Day.
