Hey Sweetpeas!!!
One thing I absolutely love doing is making Christmas cards, so I also love buying all the crafty bits and bobs needed for making cards!
Yesterday after exams I went to town and bought a whole lot of Christmas themed decorations for Christmas cards, gifts, and decorations! It was honestly a crafty-persons paradise 😉
So this is what I bought:
- a wee pack of sparkly doves, that I thought looked so cute and Christmassy!! 😉
- a pack of red ribbon for wrapping up gifts, and for cards, or bunting
- lots of stamps! one pack were clear ones that included stockings and fairy lights which I thought would look super cute on a card!! the other pack came in a jar – which instantly won me over – and contains lots of Christmassy decorations and phrases!! 😀
- Christmas paper – I got lots of gold and white patterned paper which I thought was very versatile for Christmas! 🙂
Now that I have these additions I hope to do a post on using these for bunting, cards and decorating! 🙂
I hope you’re all having a great day!
