Christmas Card Club Challenge #3 - Festive Gifts/Gift Bags

 Hi Crafters,

I'm back this morning with the latest challenge at the Christmas Card Club.

It was my turn to choose a theme this time and I wanted to change it up a bit and move away from Christmas cards for this week although there is always the Anything Goes option.

FESTIVE GIFTS/GIFT BAGS



I've had this glittery, wooden sentiment in my stash for so long that it's lovely to finally see it on a project.


Challenges I'd like to enter:

Sparkles Christmas Challenge - #133 Use Some Gold

Sparkles Monthly Challenge - #148 Use Ribbon, Raffia or Twine


Our challenge each fortnight is just for fun but if you would like to join in please contact Rachel who will give you all the details. We are a friendly bunch with a passion for all things Christmas and by the end of the year we all have a significant pile of Christmas cards that are ready for the Big day.

Have a lovely Sunday!

Lorraine
