How cute is this!




I saw this at the Harrogate papercraft show and thought it was just so cute I had to make one. The templates are from Craftworkcards. I've used K&Co Christmas cheer papers (leftovers from last year!) and what better to hang in the centre but a birdie! The bird is from another old book (very little tweaking this time) called All Made with Paper by Valerie Janitch published in 1974.

Great wreath thing (I'm sure it has a technical name!) and the bird looks fab in the centre, love it!

You have done a fabulous job with this ... the birdy in the middle finishes it off nicely ... all my friends know I like handmade things at Christmas ... so when you are worrying about my gift this year ... erm ... I will have one of those please :0)
Happy Christmas *MmWah*
