CHNC challenge 479

Thank you so much for all of your wonderful festive designs shared last week.

We look forward to seeing all your lovely festive crafting this week - perhaps something that was made before Christmas and not blogged ... or, hopefully, you're starting to get ahead for this year, now that we're into March on Sunday.

Before I tell you about this week's challenge, I need to let you know the winner of challenge 478:

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

Congratulations, Karen. Please email me at craftyhazelnut@gmail.com with your full name and address so I can post your Love to craft Krafty Christmas paper pad.

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 'vintage or shabby chic'. I want to stress that this is purely optional.
