SeemaCrafts Monthly Challenge - Christmas

Good Morning Blogland, 
Well this post was meant to go live yesterday morning but for whatever reason Blogger decided not to play and it didnt work so I have had to do this manually this morning.
Yesterday saw us start a new month so it also means we started a brand new challenge over at Seemacrafts

This month the challenge is CHRISTMAS, I know lots of people will be sick of the sight of Christmas stuff by now but I am really far behind on all my Christmas makes so this was a great opportunity for me to get making some things. 

There is a great prize up for grabs from the very talented Lindsay over at LEJ designs. The lucky winner will be able to pick 3 of her fab digi's from the great array of designs.
Ok so onto my project. I decided to make a candle gift box card as I have lots of these to make as gifts for neighbours and distant family so thought i would kill 2 birds with 1 stone. I did a tutorial on how to make these you can view this HERE



Supplies:
Me To You A4 decoupage kit
Me To You Docrafts cd rom
Ribbon - Meiflower
Large snowflakes cut on the Silhouette
Xcut snowflake punch
card candi
Martha Stweart border punch
12 scented tea light cnadles

Challenges:
 613 Avenue Create - Anything goes
Challenges 4 everyone - anything goes
Dream Vally Challenges - anything but a card
2 sisters - anything goes 


I have some exciting news to share with you all but I will do that on a seperate blog post in a few days so please do pop back and check it out.

As always thanks for stopping by
