More Christmas Creating.......

Hey Everyone.......just a super short post to share some Christmas creating. I am playing along with the

Kaiser challenge for December  which is a card sketch.

I 've layered a few different papers from Kaiser...The Christmas tree was stamped then  wrapped  in gold thread. The stamped image in the center of the rosette is a real favorite of mine. Love these colours for Christmas!

And 

another Shabby little spool tree. Go Here to see how I created them.

The card and tree are a gift for a good friend of mine.

Here is the sketch I based the card design on.

Christmas creating

Hey Everyone.........Look what I have been making! 

I could not buy what I needed.......soooooooo 

 I started with an old curtain rod , a few tools from the shed! Round disks used for joints inside teddy bears, sticks from my backyard.........and my husband! Well, after a number of failed attempts using the hand saw and the cuts being a bit wonky, my husband came to the rescue....using a table saw!

 I glued the disks to the rod, some gesso, paint and sanding

Mod podge and glitter!

Ta da !

Lola and Anna.....loved their trees. { Anna is my lovely friend who keeps my stash full of those gorgeous doilies}

A great project to use up excess ribbon in you stash..........I'm off to make some more! I do have a collection of wooden spools that were my Grandmothers...I could not part with them. I enjoy having them on display in a jar.
