How to make a paper Christmas Tree...

Simple to make and simple supplies, all you need are a lot of scallop circles, a wooden skewer and quite a bit of wet glue.

I've used Sizzix Famelits scallop circle die set, there are 8 dies in the set and I've cut 5 of each size.
Then stacked them on a wooden skewer applying a blob of PVA glue between each one to create some space between each layer.
Add a star to the top, trim off the excess skewer and it's done!

Words to decorate...

Over on the Bubbly Scrumptious blog, it's Product Focus week and this week we're focusing on wooden words.  Each designer has a different word to decorate.  I've gone for a 'Shabby Chic' look and created a photo display - just need to find some photos now...

There's a how-to make it over on the blog and lots more inspiration from the daily designers.  Thank so much for visiting.  :)

I'm back...

With some Christmas cards - what else?  Nearly made the 50 mark but not by the end of November as planned, but I'm almost there.  The Pink Petticoat designs are great for the last minute makes, the images do all the talking and you only need some simple supplies  - paper, cardstock and a few gems and glamour dust glitter - to make some really classy on-trend cards.  With this set there's even inserts to just print and go.

Well I must go, I've got one more job on today's crafty to-do list and then I'll be round to catch up with all your blogs.
