New Christmas Basic grey papers
A Christmas card I made with the new papers from Basic grey called WASSAIL. Actually, I think these are gorgeous papers for Christmas and was so glad that the French on-line stores had them in stock already!!
I have been looking in our home for these buttons for ages - as you know we have a handicapped son (Down's syndroom) and at the moment he has a manic behavior of tidying up - everything thats laying around gets stuffed into and behind cupboards, in drawers, under and behind the sofa etc. etc. We are always looking everywhere for our things at the moment and it can be very annoying!!
I found these buttons, which are very old, in a rusty old tin at a garage sale. I asked the lady if she had some lace but apparantly that was sold earlier in the morning - a whole box full for five euros - oh well - can't have it all!!
Wow, I cannot believe your paper piecing skills on that Christmas tree. What a fabulous idea. You've added great details with the border and the bling on the snowflakes.
