Shhhh. I can't post this until the day of the retreat because the guests must be surprised. These are the little stamps we will make from polymer clay.
Tissue paper and tags stamped to wrap with and give away.
I will probably add a little eyelet and ribbon or cord on the tags.
Trees and stars are what I did, but everyone will be invited to invent more designs.
This is tissue, but we will do wrapping paper and maybe brown kraft paper.
I really like how this little ornament came out, made from a matchbox. The idea comes from
http://www.craftychica.com/ .
I'm not done working with this one yet. It is only 3x5 and I would like it smaller, but I wanted to use my new cardinal punch that I bought for the retreat and he's too big to go on any smaller branch!
This twig frame is not the same size as we will be making. This mirror is only 3x3, so the frame is 9x9. Covered with burlap and framed in twigs, it will be decorated with woodsy things that I am still moving around and haven't glued down yet. I had these straw flowers in my stash from one summer that I grew them, but don't know if we can find any anywhere. They add nice color to the piece.
And here is the cover for the journal that i am making for everyone. Wondering if I should bag them as a kit and let everyone assemble their own? Now...no pouting! Santa Claus is coming!
