Christmas Crackers for the teachers


Using  a new Tonic Christmas cracker die , I decided to make a small token gift for my sons teachers at school. it started by making 2 which soon turned into 11.

I decided to use a father Christmas die for the men's and a choir girl die for the ladies.

Each cracker was cut from white American crafts textured card. Using a decorative rectangle die also from Tonic I cut detailed rectangles from both gold and silver mirror card stock.

The choir girls were cut and layered up according and the stamps provided were used to create the faces. 

These were fixed with strong double sided tape. The crackers were filled with some sweet treats and sealed using organza ribbon. 



The men's crackers were created in the same way but using a Santa Cottage Cutz die and an added section to resemble a chimney top. These were fixed to a decorative edge rectangle cut form gold mirror card. These were filled and sealed using red Organza ribbon.
