Taylored Expressions: 12 Days of A Handcrafted Christmas - Day 6


Another great blog post from Taylor, have a peek how to make clips etc.

Teachers Christmas Present

Every year I make the childrens Teachers alpha letters of their name.  Below is the finished initials of Jacks Teacher, "Amelia Jae".  She is a wonderful gifted singer hence the music paper.

 Amelia is just about to release her first CD, Amelia Jae No Ordinary day.  You can check it out here  http://www.ameliajae.com/  her voice will give you goose bumps. 

Photos not to clear sorry due to sunlight.

Kaiser Star Christmas Wreath

Just following on from my Advent Calendar I made earlier I have used the same left over papers from The Girls Paperie line to create a Kaiser Star Wreath.  You will probably notice a large star hanging from the wreath.  I accidently left it out and only noticed it after I had hot glued all the stars down.  I punched a hole in the top of the left out star and hung it from the wreath along with some Glass Glittered Baubles.  I also added some chipboard Christmas shapes covered with Silver Glitter Glass.
