"I need several stylish, handmade Christmas gifts this year, and knowing me they'll be left until the last minute so they need to be quick and easy. And cheap (because let's face it - who's cashed up at that time of year anyway?. I think this one ticks all the boxes! This is a wicker tree I found at a florist supply place. It was already painted white, so all it needed was some colourful embellishment."
Products Used:
Bazzill Basics Cardstock:
4-453E Butter
Spellbinders:

S5-028 Nested Pennants
S4-092 Stars Five
JustRite Stamps;
CR-03800 Large Fancy Holiday Sentiments
Other Products Used:
Basic Grey Plumeria papers
Button

Twine
Wicker cone tree
Here's how I prepared the stars:
Step One:
Cut some stars with the Grand Calibur and Spellbinder dies.
Step Two:
Using a stylus, score a line from the tip of a point of the star to the 'v'on the other side.
Step Three:
Repeat for all five points. All of the lines will intersect in the centre of the star.
Step Four:
Pinch each point so that it pokes up along the scored line creating a mountain fold. The scored line from the centre of the star to each 'v'will naturally form a valley fold.
