Bah Humbug Challenge 3

When I saw the challenge this week at Bah Humbug I thought 'easy' - not so because I discovered that I am more or less 'crackerly challenged'.  I searched through stamps, digi images and several CDs before I eventually came across this image on the Joanna Sheen Messy Rabbit Christmas CD.  I reduced the size of the image and printed it several times so that I could cut out elements to make a decoupage topper.  Background paper is from the same CD; sentiment is a Crafts Too embossing folder on Core-dinations card and sanded with an emery board; I've also used a Cuttlebug embossing folder, a Marianne fancy corner die and added a flower which was amongst the items in the prize  received from the lovely ladies at Bah Humbug for taking part in every challenge last year.

  2. oh Val you star - this is gorgeous. Sounds like you did the same as me - I really can't believe there are so few stamps with crackers on. Well done you for finding this and producing a fab card.

  4. Ha! Ha! this is great Val! I felt real sympathy for all you Bah Humbuggers when I saw what the challenge was this week because I know for a fact that I have absolutely nothing with crackers on, not papers, stamps or anything. For once I was glad I haven't time to enter as I'm up to my ears in wedding makes at the moment. Love your take on the challenge.

  5. Well Val ... you may have been 'Crackerly-Challenged' at first but you came through with a fab result. So pleased you didn't throw your hands up in dispair 'cos we'd've missed out on this lovely card. Thank you for sharing with us at Bah! Humbug!
