This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step
1
Take a piece of dark green patterned paper and punch 26 snowflakes.
2
Draw and cut out a tall triangle onto a sheet of co-ordinating green paper, this will be your Christmas tree template.
3
Adhere your snowflakes onto the tree in rows, starting from the top and increasing the amount for each line until you reach the bottom. Add another layer for a '3D' effect then place an adhesive gem into the centre of each snowflake to create baubles.
4
Mount your snowflake Christmas tree onto a sheet of white card and matt onto red and gold for a luxurious finish.

TIP: I have used Papermania Christmas Couture Ribbons to add sparkle to my card but you could also use them to decorate your tree!
