Lovely Christmas Step By Step TopperCompleted by Pamela Horton The whispering Platypus

This beautiful traditional style Christmas card topper design with bright blue into the purple toned flowers and bauble, by Deloris Thiede, really catch the eye.

I have made the most of the design and use of decoupage by printing the sheet provided twice and using one copy of the main image as the main backing sheet to attach using D.S. tape to a white13x9.5cm backing sheet, a 14x10cm gold backing sheet and then onto the main 15x11cm ivory card front.

I have used the second copy to cut away and reserve the frame to use as part of the insert and using padded D.S. tape attach the central image onto the topper.

I have used the supplied decoupage flower sprays to attach using suitable sized D.S. padded tape and spots.

I have attached the gold ribbon bow and the sentiment to complete the embellishments. I have used the reserved frame and extra sprays of flowers and the bauble to attach to the left- hand side of the cream insert on which I have the verse I have chosen from the free Christmas for Friends section on this site.

In my list to post.
