Craft challenge - A little Cracker

Hello and welcome.

Have you seen there is a new challenge at CRAFT CHALLENGE BLOG

this week they would like you to make either a Bag or a BOX/ Cracker

We are sponsored by

The Cutting Cafe

The winner receives 3 sets of choice from the online shop at The Cutting Cafe.

We where allowed to pick a file from their store and I picked the  'Cracker treat box' 

Here is my Cracker using some old 12x12 DP from my stash which I though was a lovely bright cheerful colour. My picture just shows the one but I have made a few as a set.

I used the PDF file as I dont have a cutting machine but it is such a easy file to use.

I added some raffia and a few bells.

The diecut is a cut with a die I purchased some time ago I think may have been off ebay. It has some Raindeer with it but just used a section of it.

The Happy Birthday is some ribbon I had from crafty Ribbons.

Well I hope this has inspired you to have a go. With Halloween just round the corner maybe you could make a bag for the candy or even why not a Halloween cracker or box.

Well hope to see you over at the challenge and please checkout the fabulous makes from the team.

Bye for now i will be back soon with a couple more dt cards. Off to play with my Brusho inks so loving these.

Crafty Catz Challenge Anything Really Does Go

Good afternoon. I really did think I had wrote this post but no unless I deleted.

Today starts a new challenge at Crafty Catz and this week I am the host standing in for our only original member of the team left Dianne. Sadly Dianne is on extended leave as she is poorly we do hope she is back with us soon

Now as it was down to me to pick the optional twist for the Dt I thought let's give them a free reign and have no twist.

So yes it really is Anything Goes

Our lovely sponsor is

DI'S DIGI STAMPS

so please checkout her shop as she has some super cute images.

So now let me share with you my make.

Now I really wasn't going to make a Christmas Card but this baby was sat in my desk. So sorry but another for the box 

Image is Christmas Goose from Beccys place available HERE
I coloured the image with my Promarkers

The sentiment comes with the image and cracks me up.

(Would this be so wrong to send to some Vegans)

Dp is Snippets of marianne and a papermania from oddments box

Gems from stash and some glitter for his hat.

Dies are Savvy Dies and Ultimate Crafts

Some sequin ribbon I found in a Christmas box

Now I guess it is now your turn.

Can't wait to see what your making. Are doing Halloween or have you started the Christmas train of cards.

Thanks for visiting and have great weekend.
