Hello lovelies
It is so miserable outside today - pouring with rain, a bit chilly.... what to do? Get making!
I was inspired to make some Christmas cards by a 'craft at home' article I saw in a supermarket magazine. Using gold card and paper from a very old and scribbled on encyclopaedia, cut out lots of symmetrical tree shapes, glue together and voila you have 3D trees. I m planning on threading ribbon through them to make a garland.
I then developed the idea further and these were the results!
This time I cut out 3 tree shapes, to make a simpler version. I am too impatient!
I used lovely paper from Tiger. Cheap and gorgeous!
I will add some text to the top of these, but my printer is out of action at the mo.... So I might stamp a message instead, I haven't decided yet.
Any symmetrical shape will work....
They are very easy to make. I made some envelopes to match!
I just used whatever card and envelopes I could find around the home, so they are all a little mismatched but I don't mind that.
Hope you are all warm and dry and enjoying your Sunday too.
