Star Wreath!!

Well, only a few months and then its CHRISTMAS! Woooo!!!...LOL....So i thought i'd get into the christmas spirit a bit early by making a star wreath to hang on the tree.
The star shape is the middle sized one on the star Sizzix die, cut out 10 stars in various, matching colours and patterns. Then I stuck the stars onto two card circles, made using Nestabilities, to give it a bit of strength.
And to finish I added cute buttons, a green ribbon to hang it on and drew a stitched pattern along the edge of the stars to give it that 'homemadey feel'.

TFL!

Gingerbread Cookies!!

Well, after a brilliant holiday and not quite so brilliant first few weeks in Year 11, I'm back with my first post for September. I said that I would make a card with the Gingerbread Cookies downloadable papers by Tinker & Co, that I won last month, from the Penny Black Saturday Challenge!....so here it is.

The papers and the cute gingerbread man are from the Gingerbread Cookies downloadable pack. The plain circle and the scalloped circle are cut out using Nestabilities, then I added some sweet buttons, ribbon, happy christmas and of course, GLITTER!

TFL!
