We used some offcuts of mountboard as a base and inked them with distress inks, added a bit of stamping and used the Tim Holtz dies to cut out either flowers or leaves. My friend Karolyn now wants to make one for each season although Sarah took hers in a whole different direction with a floral theme.
Our crafting then took a Christmassy turn with the creation of some Christmas wreaths.
.....and if that has got you in a Christmassy creative mood then you should definitely consider signing up for the 12 Days Workshop at The Copy and Paste Project I signed up last year and spent many a happy hour creating. There are 12 main tutorials to create handmade gifts plus lots of extras and there is no need to go out and buy lots of new supplies you probably have just what you need right there in your stash pile.
Here are a few things I made......

Love the words 'distress ink' and 'chocolate chip' in the same sentence! Those wreaths are very striking ... And there were lots of lovely projects I just didn't get round to doing in the class - you've reminded me I need to do something about that ...
