Paper decorations

In a blatant display of idea poaching, some easy and effective decorations were spied. “We can make those!” we cried. “Perfect for Christmas” we cried.

I had some old decorative paper lying around so choose a cream-ish paper and a Victorian red type design. I used a press to make the circles and then glued alternative designs together so they were double sided. Then a line of stitching and Bob’s ya uncle.

(Just in the interests of full disclosure – it did occur to me later that gluing the whole sheets together and then pressing out the circles might have been a more time efficient way to go – but perhaps the card would have been too thick ... yeah.)
