This evening I have been writing cards and wrapping presents.
I have had a load of fun adding collages to the cards and making snowflakes from foil, as well as adding funny messages.
My girlfriend showed me something that she does every year and I thought it was a great idea.
We have been using old broadsheet newspapers to wrap the presents. This is a great environmentally friendly alternative and money saving idea in my eyes.
Also trying to find that perfect photo to wrap the gift adds to the fun.

The newspaper gift-wrap is a great idea. I think it makes little difference since it is going to be ripped off by most people anyway.
This sort of hands-on work for occasions such as this is always a refreshing change.

I usually save my Christmas cards and cut them up for tags…
