3D at City Crafter

Hi there ...
I hope you are well and looking forward to this weeks' challenge at City Crafter ... which is brought to us by lovely Linda Robinson ... who wants us to go 3D! 
You can make any project you want as long as it is 3D ... The possibilities are endless ... what about a box?... a bag? ... a house?... a frame? ... If you are looking for ideas ... our sponsor this week is Adela Rossol "Creations By AR" who makes the sweetest templates and the DT all got to use one this week ...
I confess I already own a couple of Adela's templates but I think this one has to be one of my favourites ... 


Just look at those cute hanging baskets! 
You can use these for Halloween ... Christmas ...  as gift bags ... all manner of things ... 
I made my baskets two sizes ...  
 I had a problem with my printer which meant I had to open the PDF file in photoshop to print it ... However, this meant that I could also save it as a PNG file (transparency) and playing around I could even enlarge it but still use  A4 cardstock ... Cardstock in the USA is slightly smaller than ours here in the UK ... 
So I printed my cardstock first and added graphics and then just hand cut these ... So simple! and fun to decorate ... And you'll be amazed just how much these can hold!





I can see I will be using this template over and over again ... I love it! 
Our winner of thus challenge will get 2 templates of their choice from Adela and ... CCCB entrants this week can get 10% off one of Adela's templates! ... Just hop over to the blog to find out more and take a look at the beautiful projects from the rest of the DT ....

Well I am on a flight back to the UK today so I'll bid you farewell for now ...
I do hope you will join our challenge this week ... I'd love to see what you come up with 

Till soon keep safe
