Scrap-booking Christmas Card Making

Scrap-booking is very in fashion right now and it also takes care of our environment by reusing and reducing material which can be used to create beautiful creations.

Reusing Christmas cards, Christmas wrapping, fabric remnants and envelopes and jazzing them up using an assortment of glitzy bis and bobs like buttons, sequins and googly eyes.

Check out the kids' cards, handmade especially just for you! Merry Christmas everyone x

Crib in the painting process...

After modelling the crib figures from terracotta clay, today we painted them using acrylic and later a gloss finish once dry. We also made the base using recycled corrugated cardboard, green and brown paint, plaster of paris dust and PVA glue for a bumpy effect.
