Fairy Cracker

The new challenge at As You Like It Challenge is to make your favourite kind of gift wrapping or box. This cracker is one of my favourites for several reasons.

  1. It is really simple to make
  2. It's quite large, so it's great for wrapping awkward shaped gifts, and
  3. It's a template that I created myself (from a bit of trial and error) which is always a bit more satisfying!

If you want a copy of the template, then please take a peek at my freebie tutorials page.

I love your crackers Annette (i.e YOUR crackers as opposed to YOU'RE crackers!!) The die cut and embossed edge on this is so pretty and that image is gorgeous too. I'm going to have a play later. They will be perfect for an upcoming event at work xx
