On Sunday afternoon we had a Christmas afternoon tea with Santa and a group of ladies who all do scrapbooking together. We have started a tradition of having Christmas party at the end of the year and with all of us being very crafty we have to make a gift for another recipient. Names are drawn out of a hat.
This is the gift that I made. Its a photo cube. I saw this made on UStamp with Dawn in the Big Shot Brilliance round designed by Kirsten Brown.
It involves a 6 pieces of 6x6 dsp folded in a fancy way which achieves the diamond shape on the cube for your photos.
Then with a little decoration its finished.
To give out the gifts Santa came. We could sit on his knee and he asked us all what we would like for Christmas and what we were doing for the day. Lots of laughs. Lovely afternoon with lots of yummy food and a you could have a wee boat ride as well as the house was a t a lake that had many canals with houses backing onto it. Thanks Faith for a lovely afternoon.
On Sunday held in conjunction with a Farmers market their was a craft market in Methven. We had our stalls outside. Then just as it was about to start it started drizzling.(This photo wa taken just before that). Fortunately another stall holder had a spare gazebo which a couple of us were abl;e to get under. So here is my table of goodies.Bit of everything.
Here are some of the santa gift boxes I made. ( Have seen a few on other blogs). they are big enough to fit a Roses chocolate. Great for the tree or as a table setting.
I have made lots of these Candy Cane mice these past month. I gave one to each of the children in my Bible in schools class,plus have had two stalls lately selling them . Always a hit with the children.
