Tree Craft: Week One

[Gingerbug]

This is a busy week because of the 4th of July, physical therapy appointments, and getting my house ready for our summer party...Saturday July 7th which is Vegas: Casino Night....

BUT I plan to try my hand at these vintage looking paper trees this week....I hope I can squeeze them in....I picked them because I have the materials....so no expense and no trip to the store!!


Join me in trying them if you like:

I might try a few using old Christmas cards or holiday theme scrap book paper. Cute ideal!

That looks like something fun to do with DD.

I could do that with my cricket! I was one of the lucky ones who bought SCAL for my cricket before the law suit. My daughter makes the greatest SVG files for me. I don't need any cartridges.

I'm going to make a few more at some point but not sure if I'll get to this week or not!

I'm glad that you mentioned double sided scrap paper Ginger! I have a book of Christmas cardstock and was thinking about using that but it's not double sided, didn't even think about that!

Very cute, Gingerbug, and thanks for the tips!

DD and I are trying to buy sheet music at rummage sales. This would be PERFECT as a project!!! DGS could do it, too.
