Another few cards here - one made of fabric, including the holly! A great substance out of which to cut stars and other shapes is the humble polystyrene tray - as mentioned before in this blog they can be made into stamps, too. Not that it's a good idea to buy products packaged in them, as they're so environmentally unfriendly, but if you know anyone who does, nab their trays.
The white and silver card is made from a Christmas cracker, a favourite craft material of mine. Don't let anyone you know throw them away! This one yielded two co-ordinating types of card for a nicely icy card, with some ribbon from a present as edging and a polystyrene star. Stars can also be cut from beercans, washed, cut up and flattened - see instructions in a previous post.
The centre card is supposed to look like a present but smacks rather of a cross instead, so may go to a Christian. It's so hard to get everyone's beliefs sorted out....anyway, it's fabric and ribbon again - always remember that ribbon isn't just for bows, it's for everything!
Have a merry time whatever you're up to this winter,

Thanks for my card! It is ace, and makes me think it is snowing ;-)
