Showcase your Christmas image

Good afternoon fellow bloggers and visitors.

I hope your week is going well so far. It's Been an ok week for me , my friends here and he's bought his dog so I've got there cats and a dog here so just a bit hectic. Plus been in more pain than usual but apart from that all is going well.

Thank you all for your comments on my previous posts. You are all so kind and I promise ill do a blog hop layer today to view your blogs. I can't keep away for too long I miss it too much lol.

This project I made on Monday but haven't had time to post it until now. It's a Christmas themed project and a great way to showcase your coloured images or any gorgeous toppers you want to put on full view. The topper itself stands up on its own by inserting it into a a kind of box made especially to keep it standing upright.

I made the project base by following the tutorial from this website: Free standing image Tutorial.

It's a beautiful project and easy to make. It also folds flat for easy storage or to insert into an envelope to post for Christmas. It's unique and different.
