    This is a Christmas Card....I did a horrible job cutting the opening, so I'm going to have to work on a better solution for that, but I'm happy with how the tree turned out!

    ...ok, where did you get the pattern? Or did you come up with that yourself?
    You are very talented and it wouldn't surprise me!

    I found some pre-cut cards one year and did a paper pieced Santa. Check out your local Michael's or maybe a stationery store.

    Love the paper piecing btw.

    That is so cute. Great idea. Could you use the photo Christmas cards? I have boxes of those.

    Thanks Everyone!

    K....it's a freebie paper piecing pattern that I found on this website... http://www.wendyvosters.com/ It's under free patterns for cards. It was so quick to make. I couldn't get to sleep last night so I just whipped it up! I'm still trying to decide if I want to make 60 of these or not. We usually send out about 60 Christmas cards every year.

    I will have to check Michaels and see what they had. I looked online last night to see if they made a paper punch that large and they do, but it is pricey!

    I'm not sure about the photo cards, but that is a good idea too. I will keep my eyes open!

    hugs!
