WHAT A CRACKERCompleted by CARDS BY HILDA

My design is printed onto plain white matte card and cut and folded and glued where indicated. I found when making up my first cracker to check it was OK, the template shows to cut out all the white diamond so that the ends fold neatly in.

When I did this I thought the cracker was too flimsy and would tear easily, so I adapted my design to cutting every other diamond pattern out, and there is a candy stick design in the others.

This makes the cracker a much more stronger. Finished with some red ribbon it makes a lovely gift box to hang on the Christmas tree.
