| Handmade Paper Star | 
          Hi friends I have been missing from blogland but I have been crafting quite a bit and today jolted myself out of my laziness to come back to blogging and share a picture packed post with you featuring some of the cute Paper Star decorations my daughter and I made for Christmas!
|  | 
| Chipboard embellishments | 
I used a Sizzix die to create the large 3 dimensional stars and dressed them with lace and embellishments.

I kept the embellishments simple just adding a few satin roses and pearl strings but yes the lace border around the stars added all the glamour!

The cute bow is a broken earring and I think you will agree it looks so cute!!

 Chenille stem sticks are so easy to hot glue to paper  and that is the main reason I used them to create my hanging elements!
