Christmas is coming....

Sorry I haven't blogged for a while it's been a bit busy here. I have so much I want to do but not enough hours to do it all in anyone else get the same? We are putting the Christmas tree up today so I thought I would share one of the decorations I have made with you. This is for my living room door. I have seen loads of these around blogland but I thought they took too much paper. They actually only take 4 pieces of double sided. I used an old stampin up paper pack that I bought last year which has now retired. All I did was cut the paper into half an inch strips and then into 6 inch pieces. Curled them around a pen and stuck them on. What do you think? take care Laura xx

  1. GORGEOUS - thats what I think ! And I was of the same opinion, they look like they take reams of paper to make - might just have a go at one myself - thanks for the inspiration - what did you use as a base ? was it a foam ring ? Thanks for the add - happy weekend xxx
