Tracey Daykin-Jones has been inspired to create different techniques which you're sure to want to add to your crafty repertoire, both at Christmastime and beyond!

Shaped Apertures

1 Trim a silver blank to 10cm square. Cut a 9cm square out of the green card and trace various sized stars onto the back with a pencil. Cut these out and stick to the centre of the blank using foam pads.

2 Snip out three more stars from patterned paper and stick to the silver base inside the apertures. Tie gold ribbon through a tag, add a pink bell then affix to the centre of the card with foam pads.

The bells from the kit will add a little surprise for the recipient whilst the card is still in its envelope!

Top Tips

Keep a pair of scissors for cutting only ribbon, they will then remain sharp and allow you to trim the ends perfectly
