Hey
everyone! I have something a little different to share today…some DIY Christmas
Crackers! I’m using the Let Us Adore Him collection by Bella Blvd.
I used a
Silhouette cut file to cut three crackers from three different papers from the
Let Us Adore him collection. I chose fairly plain prints in red, green and
blue. I also cut the initials of my three children from these same papers.
I assembled
the crackers and tied ribbon around the ends. I then set about embellishing
each one.
For the
blue cracker I added a red circle sticker layered with a white circle and the
added the M initial. I layered this with some Christmas trees from the Let Us
Adore Him ephemera and ‘this Christmas’ banner. I also added some little
musical note circles, a puffy heart and some enamel dots.
For the
green cracker I created a circle for the T initial using a red sticker and a
white circle. I positioned this to the right of the cracker and layered it with
some blue flowers, a blue present. I also added musical note circles to this
cracker, together with some puffy flowers and enamel dots.
For the red
cracker, I punched a white circle to hold the S initial and I positioned this
centrally on the cracker. I added a tree ephemera, two flowers and two
presents. I also added heart stickers, flower ephemera and some puffy stickers:
holly leaves and trees. I also added enamel dots.
Finally I
splattered all three crackers with white acrylic paint. I will fill these with
chocolates and put the on the table on Christmas Day – how fun and the children
will love them!
Thank you
so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
