Christmas cheer!

My interpretion of a Christmas tree pictured Wendy made last year.  I had lots of fun cutting out the circles and stamping things one of our lovely crafty mornings.  Then I brought all the bits home arranged them and stuck them down.  It took a lot of coats of paint and tissue stuck on to make the background but that meant I could add some silver glitter as well :) 


After a couple of days I put the picture into a frame.  Trade secret!  I used the back from picture frames that were going to be thrown out as a canvas, up cycling Kirsty Allsopp would be proud of!

I liked it so much I made another one for my mum! This time on paper rather than painting for days!
