Holidays are coming...

In the past I've made Christmas cards by hand - drawing designs for friends, family and love ones. Although lovely these are very time consuming and this year was about making on mass...well 30 and required a speedier option - cue the scissors!

To make:

- recycled Christmas cards

- glue

- scissors

- star sequins

- double sided tape

- plain cards (pack of 20 for £1 bargin!)

- pen

- double sided foam (optional)

1. Cut out varied tree shapes from the recycled cards - the more the merrier. I did this free hand as I think it adds to the charm but you could use a stencil if you prefer. 

2. Arrange 4 trees on the card and glue down. 

3. Add a sequin to one tree using the double sided tape. Glue would work also but tape is my preference for sequins. 

4. Write your message onto scrap bits of recycled card and attach to card using double sided foam. Creating a 3D effect. 

Voila! The cards are then ready for you to add your own personal message and send - to be received and displayed pride of place on all your friends mantels and window ledges! And all of this for the bargin price of £1! 

Enjoy!
