Christmas letter paper

Exclusive DIY Christmas stationery

If you fancy giving your loved ones a personalised treat this Christmas, one way to impress them is to send out your Christmas post on writing paper that you’ve designed yourself! For a sophisticated touch, use tracing paper and decorate it with edding permanent spray in gold. With a stencil to help you, you can create all kinds of motif on paper; in our example, we used a squirrel design to demonstrate the idea. Gold adds a really festive touch, but you can, of course, use any of the elegant colours in the permanent spray range, such as copper, silver or rose gold. edding permanent spray is notable for its exceptional coverage, and is extremely quick drying and durable, whilst the edding 1800 profipen, with its particularly fine nib, is the perfect choice for writing in calligraphy.
