I decided to make a little basket. I will fill it with chocolates and give it to my Mum when i see her next or i have a nice little scarf that will fit it perfectly. Think she'd prefer the choccies though!

Gift Basket with Chocolates

Good morning all,
 
I hope you are all well.  Today i am here to let you know about the fab new challenge over at 2 Sisters Challenge Blog.
 
This week the them is: Anything but a card! 
 
The sponsor is: Di's Digi Downloads
 
For this week's challenge i made a Christmas themed basket which was part of my little man's gift to his teacher.  We filled it with yummy Cadbury's choccies.  The designer paper is old stash of mine and is by Basic Grey (i think).  The handle was made using an EK Success border punch and the snowflake was a Martha Stewart punch.  Unfortunately, the photo doesn't do it justice, i now realise that the photo is squint, the chocs are lop sided, the colours are to pot! Apart from that, it is ok lol Silly me!

Thank you for popping by.  Have a great New Year.
 
Hugs, Jill x
