candy cane parade

Hello crafty friends. I ‘m just popping in quickly with a Christmas card to share. I’m taking it easy today after a big day supervising Japanese exams yesterday. (Other than catching and carrying a recalcitrant sheep at lunchtime) I was in such stealth mode during the exam that despite walking for the whole of the test, I only gained about 35 steps!

There is a quick video if you’d like to watch.

You could use patterned paper or plain cardstock for these candy canes, but I chose to make my own watercolour paper. I cut and layered the candy canes, making 6 in all. 5 were used on this card, and the sixth was made into a quick and easy bonus card, which you can see below.

That’s all from me today. I’m still busy making gift sets of cards, and hope to share some soon.

Until next time,

Blessings,

Donna
