Hope you are all enjoying the cold weather - I'm not. Although it is currently lovely and sunny in my room, and warm. Won't be in a couple of hours though when the sun has gone down.
My creative side has been sidetracked lately with other things interfering, but hopefully soon I will have a day to myself to do what I want. On the weekend we went to a birthday party for my nephew, and for his present, we went in with my sister-in-law. So Kylie sorted out all the wrapping and look at the lovely bow on his present. It's made from a discarded library book. Just had to share this with you.
The card I made was from an idea by Lynda Shrimpton, a fellow demonstrator who posted her card on an online forum. Lynda had used a stamp around the edges of the star, but as I don't have that stamp, I paper pierced mine instead. The first card is using the same colours she did, and the second card, the one Sam received, I just made the darker green the predominant colour. I am sure I will be making a few more cards like this in the future. This was very easy to do, and uses up some of those scraps of cardstock you have hanging around. Thanks Lynda.
