Throw it all into the melting pot and see what happens...

This month Kay will be demonstrating how to make Christmas cards and decorations using chipboard and UTEE in the melt pot.



Michelle will be keeping the Christmas decoration theme going with her demo too,  so Wednesday will be a good chance to get ahead with your decoration challenge. Don't forget to checkout our Pinterest Christmas Decoration board for more inspiration.

Juan Sheet Part Dos...

Today at Tadworth we made gift bags and matching cards out of one sheet of 12 x12. Here are some of the results:





To make the gift bag first cut 4 inches off one side of the 12 x 12 paper. This can be put aside and used to make your cards and gift tags. Draw out the template as shown below. Click on the picture to enlarge and see the measurements. For instructions on how to fold the bag click here for a video tutorial.

Mod Podge Mania

Lots of sticky fingers on Saturday as we pretty much Mod Podged everything in sight!! I only have a few photos below, but we were Mod Podging chipboard books, glass tea-light holders, Jenga blocks, clothes pegs, card boxes, tins, glass bead magnets. There were also a few Mod Podged mirrors, but hopefully we will see them in our altered mirror competition so no photos of them yet.








Where will it all stop!!
