A Very Merry Christmas

It has been a very busy time getting ready for Christmas, not least for the mad rush to get some Christmas cards made and written before the Royal Mail deadline passes.

So this year, after getting some Dyelusion sprays for my birthday from my lovely Stitch & Bitch friends (and the majority of them looking bemused at my delight), I thought I would use them as backgrounds in my cards.

For the tree I used some fabric I had previously printed with Stewart Gill True Colour Paints and I cut it into 1" strips and machined onto fabric.  I then cut tree shapes and bondawebbed them onto the paper.

Also for the Christmas Stitch get together, I made a table runner out of purple felt which fell out of my cupboard last week.  I used the Sizzix Reindeer and Snowflake dies and an On The Edge border which I sewed onto the panel.  

Wishing everyone a very Happy Christmas and I will post again in the New Year.
