Anything Goes at Winter Wonderland

 Good morning and welcome to our final challenge this year. at Winter Wonderland.  And what a year it has been for all of us!  Now the vaccine is here let's hope things will improve in 2021.

My Card/Project

 
Ceramic star
 
pizza box with belly band



I am secretary of our WI and we have not been able to meet since March.  To let our members know that we have not forgotten them the committee decided we would give each of them a goodie bag for every missed meeting.  This includes a little gift, a card,  and a quiz, word search etc. Since we have 53 members this has been no mean feat and since I am the only paper crafter and stamper guess who has done the majority of the work ... lol!

The card is a 6" square white card base and I used John Next Door's Sams Starz. The ivy is also John Next Door, cut in silver card and the poinsettia is from Britannia. They were all slightly different - different flower placement, different colour leaves, different number of leaves etc.  I ordered a custom stamp and used it on the cards, the ornament and the gift bags themselves so we made good use of it.  I also made a pizza box to hold the ceramic star and the star from JND on the belly band with the greeting.

The ceramic star is from Hobbycraft and took the stamp beautifully. A Tonic Nuvo drop pearl in each point finished it off. Hopefully they will be pleased with their memento of this terrible year. I must admit I was very pleased to get this project out of the way.  It has really been a marathon but they are so appreciative of what we do for them it is worth it.

Well that's it from today but I'll be back tomorrow.

Take care.
