CHNC challenge extra for December mid-month inspiration


I wonder if all of your Christmas cards have been made and written? Or whether you are having to quickly make more, like I'm having to do! We love to see your entries for our challenge and hope that you will keep on adding them till the end of the month - perhaps sharing things that you made and didn't have a chance to blog - we would love you to show us. Please scroll down or click here to see the lovely crafting of the team at the beginning of December and add your entries.

We wish you all a very Happy Christmas


Here is some inspiration from some of the Design Team, hopefully to get you in the festive creativity spirit:

CHNC challenge extra for December 2016


It doesn't seem possible that we are now drawing towards the end of the year and by the time this challenge finishes Christmas will have been and gone!

This is an opportunity to create all those Christmas designs you've been meaning to get done and to share them here ... the more the merrier. Or perhaps you have been so organised that everything is done and you can share some of the designs you haven't had time to show yet.

We wish you all a very Happy Christmas

Our current DT signed up for six months till December 2016, but I'm pleased to say that everyone will be staying on for the next six months from January through to June 2017, but, sadly, Jennifer is unable to continue on the team. We will miss you and your lovely designs, Jennifer.

As a result of the DT call, we have a new team member joining us - I will introduce her in the January 2017 challenge post when her design will be included.

Please click here to see the winner of CHNC challenge extra for November.
It's worth looking because it might be you!

This challenge will last for the whole month of December 2016 - anything goes as long as it's Christmas - it doesn't have to be a card, you can link any project as long as it's Christmas!

Once again this year, all of these monthly challenges are being generously sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps - a winner will be randomly chosen using random.

Bugaboo Stamps are proud to sponsor this challenge - they are offering $21 of digital stamps to the randomly selected winner.

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay
As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing!  From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects.  Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! 

 If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps   at Totally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT   for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug

Here are the delightful designs of the team:

All digital stamps used were kindly supplied by our sponsor, Bugaboo Stamps:
