After months of great longing...... paper garland satisfaction was achieved!
This one was made by Karen who hangs out with Malisa at
Moonlight Hollow. Is it not incredible!!!!!!! We loved it. There is so much to be gained by working with others.... we fed off of one another's creativity!

These are mine, Virginia's and Malisa's...piled in the middle of the table!!!
It's hard to imagine how different each one turned out! We were using the same piles of paper ... basically!
Below are some close-ups of mine I took today..... when trimming the coffee filters down by hand with scissors, they left these little tendrils that were in circles. I said I wanted to use them. Someone said just hang them in there.... someone else said to double them.... we loved it!

These are made from coffee filters, cupcake liners and all sorts of papers that we cut by hand and with punches.
Malisa and Karen posing for me....
and, yes, Karen...I can photoshop her out!

Karen and Virginia working hard.... that Karen is a possessed woman when she gets started!

And...last but CERTAINLY NOT LEAST... I'm in a swap with four other women and here is a peek at what I sent them. I'll tell ya more about it soon.... but I told them I was putting a peek up, and I have been s l o w!!!
