CHNC challenge 179: 3 of something

It was lovely seeing representations of Christmas where you live - thanks for a lovely variety of inspiration.

Please note that I publish the prize winners here and on our facebook page, but don't notify winners individually - it is up to you all to check to see if you have won and email me as requested. There are one or two unclaimed prizes, so it's worth having a look back to see if you were a winner.

This is my card featuring 3 of a few things (flash picture doesn't do it justice - will try and get better picture in daylight - more details about the card here on My Crafty Outlook:

Now it's over to you. As usual, you can use any materials, any techniques - and this week I'd like to see 3 of something on your card - it could be 3 trees, 3 baubles, 3 different colours, 3 difference shapes ... I'm sure you will have ideas - just make sure there are 3 of something - you can even make 3 cards if you like - as long as you show them together in the same entry.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge - please add a link to your blog post (not your blog, but the actual post where your card can be found) by 22:00 UK time Friday 6 June. Please include a link to this blogpost within the post for your creation.

You can enter as many times as you wish  and also link to any other challenges that allow you to do so, but new work only, please.

A new challenge will be set on Saturday 7 June when there will once again be three chances to win a prize, thanks to generous sponsors.

At the beginning of the year I started up a new challenge called Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge - anything goes as long as you cover your card with patterned paper - a randomly chosen prize winner every month. Please click on the link to find out more. If you have used patterned paper to cover your card blank for your Christmas card, why not enter it there too. And please be aware that the new Patterned Paper Challenge is not restricted to Christmas - it is for any occasions.
