CHRISTMAS STOCKING



Good Morning Blogland!
Hope you are all well.
It's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge Blog. Each weekly challenge is "Anything Goes as long as it's CHRISTMAS" with an OPTIONAL theme, which this week is
"No Sentiment"
Winners are chosen at random.

I have, for quite a while, been determined to use up my stash, and the stocking here is from my Christmas box. I think it's from NitWits "Heavenly" collection. I've simply layered it up on to some polka dot paper and black card.
Looking forward to seeing your makes....it will be FEBRUARY next week!

HAPPY NEW YEAR



HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
Hope you all had a good Christmas. We had a quiet but enjoyable one.

Today sees a new start for me. I have, for a couple of years, been designing cards for Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge Extra, but as Hazel is so very busy running other challenges, she has decided to end that blog. Good news though....I am now on her design team for the weekly Christmas Challenge Blog! Yay!
Every CHNC challenge will be "ANYTHING GOES AS LONG AS IT'S CHRISTMAS" but with an OPTIONAL theme which this week is "upcycle or use something old".
I don't know about you but I always keep old Christmas cards, some because they're just too nice to throw away, but mainly to recycle as tags etc. For this card I have upcycled a "Snowman" card, cutting out the little pictures, framing them and layering up on some snowy paper. I must apologise for the picture quality, I broke my camera a couple of months ago so had to use my daughter's cheap one. I was hoping Santa would bring me a new one but alas, he didn't so I'm going to have to treat myself!
Each week, a winner will be randomly picked and Hazel generously offers a prize. This week it is:


Here is the link to the challenge:

Can't wait to see your makes!
