Today I'm linking up with the Graphics Fairy on Brag Monday.
Go check out the other wonderful links using her images.
I've got a paper chain tutorial and free images to make your own.
First I used 2 of her antique Christmas images in photoshop to make my own image strips for a paper chain. (I have provided them at the bottom for you to print out)
I cut the excess paper around the edges off.
I then glued each paper strip sheet to a sheet of old music so the back would be covered.
trim the excess music sheet from around the edges and cut out each strip.
Now simply fold each strip into a circle and tape, staple, or glue the ends together.
It makes a really neat vintage style paper chain.
Below each of the following images are the links to the 4 different paper chain .pdf's
I also want to share with you my newest online workshop...

Hello Thespa,

Hope all is well with you and your family. So wishing you lived closer so I could pop over to see you in person!
