All wrapped up

 So many things to do, so little time......Aaaaaaaaaarrgh!!!!

It's fine....no really it's fine. We have all got this, we're crafters! We can do anything....

I have 4 snowflakes crocheted and I need at least 30 more................I CAN do this..............

Hmm......should I make a red cloak for the card deliveries? If I made the hood deep enough it would garantee nobody sees it's me. Although no-one's spotted me yet, or they haven't said anything thankfully.

Nope, I need to make more wrapping paper, which conviently goes with our challenge over at The Sisterhood of Crafters

CHRISTMAS

so I have made my wrapping paper by recycling


And then Buffy? I hear you cry...

And once that's done?

And of course the final stage of the process, wrapping the pressies

 
The secret is to not colour every stamped image.

It's very satisfying to know I've rescued paper and given it a new life, even if it's only briefly. At least some of this wrapping will become a firelighter. Cozy

I apologize for the tiny writing on some of the photos, I underestimated  how small they would look on here.

Our fabulous DT have made some super creations, so go share some holiday cheer with them....Here

Oh how fantastic to re-cycle. Very good tip on not coloring each and every one.

What a fantastic touch to your gift giving! Using a large block to stamp multiple images is a great hack...lovey job!
