    I had a brainwave for my ATCs, and dug out an old pack of playing cards to use as a base, because I'm useless at cutting things to size - it never quite works out!

    So, here we go, two I whipped up last night.

    Do you have a Hobbycraft near you, I know they sell large reels of it in different colours.

    Have just had my first ever trip to Hobbycraft and my DD age 10 and I spent about an hour and a half wondering around! Heaven!

    Thanks Rainmac managed to get 8 rolls of ribbon was £1.99 per roll but seemed like a good deal! Also managed to put a few other things in my basket!! Did buy important things like stuff for Rudolphs but couldn't find door hangers!!

    I found one door hanger when I went to Hobbycraft, I think it was about 70p. For some strange reason they had put it by the dollshouse section with other wooden items. This was the store in Tamworth but it might be in the same place in other stores.

    My sister used to work in hobbycraft Tamworth ... I grew up there and spent the first 18 years of my life there :D

    Anyway I have been busy this afternoon making a few more ... they are not for anyone important, mainly just because I can :D ... had to stop though as we are off out to friends this evening (well in 29 minutes and I am still not ready!)

    Here they are

    And this final one was my attempt at a christmas card ... not happy with it though so don't think I will bother with anymore :(
