Homemade Christmas Cards 27/50 - 50 makes for Christmas

Another make that wasn't on the original list and I am not sure how it it was missed off as I usually make a few Christmas cards most years.

Another bit of using up things I already have in, I brought this wrapping paper about 3 years ago, I tucked it out of the way and forgot about it.  It came to light a couple of weeks ago when I was looking for some birthday wrapping paper and I thought BINGO!

The design lends itself  very well for a bit of cut and paste and tones nicely with the cream base cards that I have a stack of, they were brought from Hobbycraft a number of years ago, they always seem to have a wide range of card paraphernalia.












There is more than half a sheet of the paper left so I think my family can expect something similar to drop through their letterboxes for the next couple of years!


Make 27 only 3 away from hitting 30, I am starting to think I can make it all the way to the end of the 50 makes for Christmas challenge.


Are you happy to receive home made cards or do you prefer shop brought?

  1. I think homemade shows thought and effort. Much better than shop cards.

    1. Thank you for popping by Julieann I love receiving home made cards but I think most people opt for the convenient option and buy.
