A few Christmas projects

I have rather fallen in love with the mood of a Scandinavian Christmas this year. I love the designs and papers from Vivi Gade and the Pion Design papers.
Here is a collection of projects I have been working on:



This is a collection of little folded boxes and stars.


And here a couple of quick cards.

THESE ARE BEAUTIFUL ASTRID ... love the colours and the layers ... fabulous idea .. hugz x
hey by the way about my little bag, no I made the pattern up myself and it basically is just in the form of a book with a spine ... and then I shaped the sides at an angle .. then cut out a circle for the top ... folded it over and cut off the back of the circle and attached it with brads ... quite simple really ...
the bottom is reinforced with chipboard so it stands up .. xo

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
