Last Christmas I got a pack of little tiny real bells, then couldn't think what to use them for, so they sprang to mind when I read that this week's challenge at Less is More is "Jingle all the way"
I did kick myself a bit though - the holes on the bells for threading the silver thread through are TINY, and I'm very short sighted and astigmatic. I ended up taking my specs off and holding each bell up to one eye with the other closed. Now you know why I seldom do any embroidery any more - threading a needle is nigh on impossible for me.
I love how you've used the bells. I have a little box of them and needed some inspiration for using them. Another great card. xx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Jane and how I relate to the bit about the glasses!
ReplyDeleteI love your jingle bells Jane... you're one of the few who actually managed to get the 'jingle' into your card! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much

Your bells and so sweet and what a fab card Jane. I have real trouble seeing closeup things these days, think I may have resorted to sticking the thread on the back with Glossy Accents, you are so patient!
