CRAFT Challenge 207 - 16th of May - Christmas

Morning All!

I hope you all enjoyed our annual Blog Hop last week and didn't find the sentence too hard to work out. We certainly enjoyed ourselves, although Blogger did not appear to be behaving itself very well for some of our stops. We hope it did not put you off taking part. I will be announcing the winners of the Blog Hop on our challenge blog this weekend when I have had a chance to do the random draws on the blogs. The random draws on the Rick St Dennis MFA blogs, will be done by them, so please check on those blogs to see if you're a winner as well.

But now it's time for our next challenge here at CRAFT Challenge. This week we would like you to make a project bearing the below brief in mind

Christmas

So, anything bearing the above in mind will qualify. We can't wait to see what you come up with. This is our monthly Christmas challenge to keep you on track for your Christmas cards this year.
