Hi Folks
For the month of September I was delighted to be selected as the design team favourite over at Unstampabelles Challenges and asked to be their guest designer for the month of November. For anyone who is not familiar with Unstampabelles Challenges you can enter any papercraft project but no stamps - rubber or digi stamps - are allowed. Why not have a go, it's a lot of fun.
Today sees the start of their new challenge and the theme of the challenge is:
Vellum
For full details of the challenge and to see the fab prize on offer just pop over to Unstampabelles Challenges.
Here is my inspiration project.
I decided to use some gold coloured vellum I had in my stash to make this little christmas cracker. I did have a couple of templates for crackers but when I made this I couldn't find them. So I just went with it and worked out some measurements and hoped for the best. I managed to make this using one sheet of A4 vellum. I kept the design quite simple doing some embossed snowflakes on the ends. I added a preprinted sentiment and a couple of poinsettias for decoration. A few gems finished the cracker.
Thanks for popping by and looking forward to seeing all your entries. Just pop over to Unstampabelles Challenges to enter the challenge. Don't forget to check out the rest of the design team creations.
