Hello and Welcome!!!
It has been a bit since I have last posted but I have been crafting!
I also just joined in on the Loaded Envelope Bandwagon
and wanted to share my first one with you.
It was SO MUCH fun to do since a lot of the embellishments were made
with items I had in my stash.
It's always great to use items you already have...
even though I did go shopping as well...didn't mind that at all!
I used the Recollections Red and White Christmas Paper Pack.
So in the bottom pocket,
I made a couple of paper clips with clay ornaments I bought last year.
I also added three hanging icicle ornaments I made last year.
In the next pocket I made a poinsettia straw and
some tags with the paper pack.
I also hung from a clothespin from Target,
a hanging purse charm I made last year.
In the top I added some rosette straws and a pipe cleaner straw I made.
Here is the Envelope bare.
I used some mesh trim I had and a Happy Holidays metal piece.
I also added some pieces from some Christmas picks I had.
Here it is again with all of the items inside.
Now on to the BIG news...
