At last my decoration samples are finished and I have so enjoyed making them - it spurred me on to make more.
I love this time of year gathering Christmassy things whether it be card and paper, ribbons and buttons, wrapping paper and tags, candles that smell of Christmas, I love it. All the colours of Christmas too, nice warm and glittery things, food too..... Christmas shaped chocolates and biscuits, ginger spiced things especially the coffee in Starbucks...Gingerbread Spice Latte... yummy!!!
Getting distracted from what I am supposed to be doing and that is the samples....
I showed you the banner on the previous blog post that is the morning's make... and the 8" x 8" card is the afternoon's make...
White poinsettias and a sparkly Christmas tree is the theme this time, using craft card and a great background paper from Woodware featuring 'Merry Christmas' across it...
Hope you like it.
Only a few spaces left for the decoration class, Sat 14th Dec.
Just on the last of the Christmas packs for the second of my classes on Sat 23rd November...
Sneak peek at the packs......
Found some cute wooden Christmas trees when I went to Paperchase in London in September. I have seen some similar in small packs in Hobbycraft too! Wonderful place Paperchase wish we still had one nearby...
Great for knick-knacks etc.
Another good find while I'm on the subject - I found this holder for garden twine, which I use a lot on my cards, from Asda...
Hopefully it will always be on the reel looking pretty when I need it and not buried under a pile of papers!!!
