CHNC challenge 531

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

We look forward to seeing all of your lovely festive crafting this week. It's a really good idea to try and make at least one card a week ... no panic then when it gets towards the end of the year ... and, by the end of this challenge, we'll being March already.

Before I tell you about this week's challenge, I need to let you know the winner of challenge 530:

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

Number 19: Made by Mandy: with this lovely shaped card:



Congratulations, Mandy. Please email me at craftyhazelnut@gmail.com with your full name and address so I post your Darice embossing folders Floral paisley and Flowers in pot.

Please note that winner needs to claim the prize by 13 March (2 weeks)

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.

Challenge 531

Every week a prize is given to a randomly chosen winner - this is the prize I'm giving this week:

Here are the designs from myself and the rest of my wonderful team - I am so grateful to them for sharing their lovely designs:

  4. I loved the theme of vintage this week. I love making at least one Christmas card a week for my Christmas stash, so I am always glad to find interesting challenges during the week to get my mojo going. These are some beautiful cards designed by your design team.
