CHNC challenge extra for November 2015


By the end of this month it will be less than four weeks till Christmas, so this is the time to get down to some serious festive crafting and I hope my challenge can help you to do so - we would love to see your creations.

Please click here to see the winner of CHNC challenge extra for October 2015.
It's worth looking because it might be you!

This challenge will last for the whole month of November 2015 - anything goes as long as it's Christmas - it doesn't have to be a card, you can link any project as long as it's Christmas!

Once again this year, all of these monthly challenges are being generously sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps - a winner will be randomly chosen using random.

Bugaboo Stamps are proud to sponsor this challenge - they are offering $21 of digital stamps to the randomly selected winner.

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay
As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing!  From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects.  Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! 
 If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps   at Totally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug


Introducing 3 new Design Team members

Before going any further, I'm so happy to introduce 3 new team members:

Marg Byatt



Hiya, my name is Margaret but I do prefer to be called Marg and I'm 54 years old. Ive been crafting for most of my life. I have 2 daughters, the eldest is married & lives a few miles away. She's given me a fab son-in-law and two gorgeous grandsons. My youngest daughter is 18 and studying hard at college, in her 3rd year of Art & Design.

I am quite severely disabled but I craft to keep my hands and mind occupied and it works lol. I love digi stamps but I also like rubber stamps. I have no special artist that I prefer and I have no special style of design. My serious card making/papercraft/upcycling came into effect almost 6 years ago and I've not looked back. I am honoured to be invited to join Hazel and all the other DT members of this fabulous challenge blog.

Monica Poo:

My name is Monica and I live in Italy. I graduated in English literature a long ago and, after working in a big Company for years, I decided to become a stay-at-home-mom. After years of painting, back in 2008 I tried with papercrafts and stamps and I�ve never looked back! I first used watercolour pencils because Copics were not available in my town but now they are my favourite coloring medium. I'm so happy to be on the team here at CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra!





I have been a crafter all my life - I enjoy all sorts of crafts but my current passion is paper crafting. At the moment I live in the UK but for the previous 17 years I have been an expat, living in Australia, Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi and India. Whilst overseas I always managed to find friends who also wanted to craft! Now back in England I spend a lot of time in my craft room. I like to play with different techniques, making both mainstream items and more left of centre projects. I use a lot of digi images but also like getting inky�and I love different folds, ATCs and fat pages! My intention every year is to make all my Christmas cards before I get to November � and every year I run late! I am hoping to catch up this year soon!!
