Hey everyone! This is Niki (@nikiclairecreates) and I have something a little different to share today…some DIY Christmas Crackers! I’m using the Let Us Adore Him collection and there is a process video too.
I used a Silhouette cut file to cut three crackers from three different papers from the Let Us Adore him collection. I chose fairly plain prints in red, green and blue. I also cut the initials of my three children from these same papers.
I assembled the crackers and tied ribbon around the ends. I then set about embellishing each of them.
For the blue cracker I added a red circle sticker layered with a white circle and the added the M initial. I layered this with some Christmas trees from the Let Us Adore Him ephemera and ‘this Christmas’ banner. I also added some little musical note circles, a puffy heart and some enamel dots.
For the green cracker I created a circle for the T initial using a red sticker and a white circle. I positioned this to the right of the cracker and layered it with some blue flowers and a blue present. I also added musical note circles to this cracker, together with some puffy flowers and enamel dots.
For the red cracker, I punched a white circle to hold the S initial and I positioned this centrally on the cracker. I added a tree ephemera, two flowers and two presents. I also added heart stickers, flower ephemera and some puffy stickers: holly leaves and trees. I also added enamel dots.
Finally, I splattered all three crackers with white acrylic paint. I will fill these with chocolates and put them on the table on Christmas Day – how fun and the children will love them! Enjoy watching the process video below.
Thank you so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
