Bells & Boughs

Here is another Christmas card... this time using the greeting stamp from the stamp set, Bells & Boughs, and little strips cut into flags, lots of flags.

 

The flags are simply folded and glued onto string which is held in place by little tiny brads...


Nice and easy!  Here's a sneak peek inside...


 Some flags are stuck down and some are flying in the breeze!



 I have one more Christmas card to show you... tomorrow?

Treasured Moment:  I spent the entire day with my mum - we made cards, lots of cards, but even better, we chatted all day long!  Mum told me a 'gem' that her cousin told her... way back in the fifties... 'your children won't remember a tidy house, but they will remember a mum who drops everything to play with her children'...   Does your mum tell you 'gems'?

Looks so cute in your photos, Jenny! It was fun, if a little frustrating, to make, too. :)
