Beccy's Place Month of Holiday Cards Challenge Day 16 N

        This is a make for

 Beccy's Place: A Month Of Holiday Cards Challenge

 - which is now in its 13th year!

This card follows the prompt N - Day 16

N is for Nutcracker.


This was my Grandad's nutcracker. It was always on the piano in my grandparents' house. When they both passed away and the house contents were sorted out, it came to my parents' house. When we had a party, it would often fall off the bookcase - we always said Grandad must be enjoying the party too. I think it was probably the floorboards shaking the book case! Anyway it is now in my house on my old sewing machine...

At the beginning of the month I made several items for Gecko Galz as the current challenge is

Nutcracker Dreamland

 I made a nutcracker box to contain a candle gift... This is my favourite image
from this collage sheetI also used it on a journaling card in this little junk journal folio .
More details on my blog here


Anyway today I have printed the image again and used it on a card.


I started with a kraft card matted with a paper from 49 & Market Evergreen. I added the image also matted on kraft card and embellishments from the same 49 & Market set.

I will add this to the challenge

Happy Crafting!
