TOTI CREATIVE CARD GUILD WORKSHOP - CHRISTMAS BAUBLE CARD

This month I presented two card classes to the members of our local card guild and I decided to show the ladies how to use up scraps of DP to make 3D Christmas cards.

This is the first card :


Clean andd simple, quick to make, and so very pretty!

Here is another view showing the dimension and sequins: 


and another:


I think the members really enjoyed the class as much as I enjoyed giving it.  I then gave them the template and papers for a Christmas tree card, using the same technique, and they made stunning cards.

My card with the Christmas trees can be found here.

    As it’s something I don’t like doing will admit to this being a copy and paste comment because I am unable to type properly at the moment, but didn't want to miss the opportunity to take a look at your lovely Christmas creation and thank you for joining us at Allsorts this week.
