This month we used the Envelope Punch Board and also the Gift Bag Punch Board to make gift packaging and table decorations and here are some of the projects that were made.
This cutlery holder was made using the Envelope Punch Board. It's made by punching and scoring on the first three sides and then on the last side you simply punch. This year there will be seven of us for Christmas dinner, so I have a few more of these to make.
The box above was made using the Gift Bag Punch Board. These are so simple to make using the board and I'll be making a few more of them as table favours.
I'm not the only one in the family who has been making things for Christmas. This year my Mum has been knitting Elf Hats for Cats (don't ask). They are very cute and my son, Michael took one back to Chicago with him for his girlfriend's cat.
Here's a picture of Sookie wearing her hat!
Apparently she is quite happy to wear it just so long as it's not tied on. My sister's kitten on the other hand is not so pleased.
I have a few Christmas cards to finish today and get in the post. Once those are sorted it will be time to play with my Spring/Summer pre-order so watch this space for some sneak peeks over the coming weeks.
