"Look up at the sky and count the stars . . ."

Hi all! I'm Becca from http://becca-knithappens.blogspot.com/. It's now December and I've finally got round to doing something creative for Christmas. Hooray!

I spent the best part of yesterday afternoon leisurely making these minimum effort (but nevertheless cute) Christmas cards. A bit of cutting, sticking and paper layering. I only used white card, a bit of green, a bit of orange, and one magazine. Oh, and a trusty Stanley knife.



I found that the more I limited myself with materials, the more creative I was. And, each one's different so it didn't get too humdrum. I found http://www.biblegateway.com/ really helpful for the insides - I just searched 'stars' for some lovely verses, but of course, that's up to you.


This was super easy to do, and fun too. And now I can kid myself I'm more organised for Christmas than I really am! Great.

Hope this was helpful, happy crafting!
