Blimey it has been busy and it is only the beginning of December!
But would you believe it, I have bought about 95% of my Christmas presents and already wrapped them all!
Well you can't blame me for being keen!
Fortunately I have had this last week off so I have been able to crack(er) on with the festivities, including a shopping trip to York and an entertaining evening at Beamish!
Being part time gives you alot of extra time which you somehow need to fill. So I thought I would make Christmas that little bit more special by making all the Christmas cards and the wrapping paper.
Stencils and paint to hand...
I started stencilling!
I had 5 designs overall, 1 design per 2 people.
In opposite colours, I made gift tags.
So red wrapping paper, had a green tag, green had a red tag, gold with silver and silver with gold.
And ta-dah! The final paper!
A very small selection of the wrapped presents so you are able to see each paper design.
The finishing touches (bows and bells) will be added before they are put under the tree. We don't want flat bows on Christmas Day!
