Thank you for all lovely entries for last week's challenge, once again lots of lovely entries, 41 in total.

We're looking forward to seeing your festive designs this week.

Before I tell you about this week's challenge, I need to let you know the winner of challenge 434:

Please note that my email to send to is craftyhazelnut@gmail.com

Congratulations, Eemeli. Please email me at craftyhazelnut@gmail.com with your full name and address so I can post your Leonie Pujol Bubble Explosion embossing folder.

Every CHNC challenge is 'anything goes as long as it's Christmas', which will, hopefully, encourage as many crafters as possible to join in with their festive creations. However, there will always be an optional theme, which this week is 'for a child'. I want to stress that this is purely optional.

Every week a prize is given to a randomly chosen winner - this is the prize for this week, kindly donated by Myrna, one of the DT:
