Turning decorations into cards

The weekend was a whirlwind of Christmas shopping, Christmas celebrations and Christmas card making. I took these Polli decorations...

And turned them into these simple but sweet Christmas cards...

Thirty or so Christmas cards now written and posted - one Christmas task down and only a trillion to go! No wonder they call this the silly season.

Papermash

The very savvy blogger Lynn over at Tea for Joy has launched her very own online stationery shop, Papermash. It's filled with delectable paper goods. My favourite being this lace tape - using this would make it pretty easy to wrap a stylish present... And, to celebrate the launch of Lynn's shop, she's giving one lucky blogger the chance to win a year's supply of stationery. Head on over to her blog to read the competition details and hear more about her new venture Papermash. Her lovely shop sells beautiful tapes (just like the one above), note cards...

Notebooks...

Gift tags (I love this one because I have a thing for bees)...

Twine...

And much, much more!

Wishing all my blogging friends the very best for the Easter break. I'm off to my sister's farm for a few days, but before I go I thought I'd share with you the beautiful handmade Easter card I received in the mail this week...

See you next week.
