Christmas Cards

Before I start, my blog is a little late this week because our family cat has died, which has thrown all our plans and made some things not happen quite as they should.

We'll miss you, Marie, even though you stole my dinner!

Anyway, before all that happened, I have been making Christmas cards with the children.  We do this every year, so last January (and the previous nine or ten) I cut out all the pictures and words from cards we had received ready to use to make them the following year.  By this point we have quite a collection:

These are all the words I have cut out from old Christmas cards

And these are the pictures

Then we get out glitter and googly eyes and scissors et, largely we treat it as an 'anything goes', and with some folded card we make all the children's cards for their friends at school.

Spot the one which was accidentally made the wrong way round ...

Coming soon:
