White Christmas

Good Morning All
Allsorts Challenge this week has been set by Jo and it is 'White Christmas'

Well this is nearly all white but I wanted to show you this idea of using last years Christmas cards to use as embellishments.  I did this last year too and it is really simple.  Just cut a shape out and punch holes around edges and crochet round.
Added some stars to sort of match the baubles on the circle.




As I used a black card base I stuck a die cut inside for writing on.

So pop over to the challenge blog for details.

    Hi Wendy. What a lovely card. I love how you have crocheted around the edge of the topper (I cut up my old Christmas/birthday cards too) As I can't crochet I suppose sitting the topper on a doily would give a similar look. Take care.

    Hi Wendy, I remember you doing this last year. The crocheting gives it a lovely effect and makes a really pretty card.
    Love Val x
