I had been asked by the local Anglican Guild to host a Craft night with one of my close friends. She was decorating cakes, and I was helping the ladies to make the above card. This is the first time that I have done a demonstration, and it took a lot of preparation, especially as my ladies ranged in age from late sixties to one lovely lady who is 92!!
I decided to approach the task by making a card that could have everything pre-stamped and cut out, so that all they had to do was assemble it. Although I have to say this was easier said than done.
It was a fun night, with all the ladies enjoying both activities. Strangely enough the Gift Tags and Reindeer bags were an after thought, but these proved very popular.
All products used are from Stampin' Up!
The stamp and punch set is Christmas Collectibles, and the paper is Seasons of Style Designer Paper. Owl and Bird Punches. The colours used were Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake.
