I made the base cracker from a 12" square scrapbook page, and I've included the template I created below in case any of you want to give it a try too if you like my versions.
The images and sentiments are raised up on foam pads. Here's a close up of each cracker:

Thank you so much for the freebie cracker design. I just found your site through Scor Pal contest and just became a follower of yours. PS-did you hand cut the diamonds cut outs on the cracker box? or do you have an SVG file for it?
Hi Sue, Unfortunately I can't reply directly as your blogger profile is not public and so I can't see your email address, but I don't have SVG files for my templates (I wouldn't know where to start with that). They're all cut by hand (even when I made 18 crackers for my whole department in Xmas 2014!!). They're fairly quick to cut out though from a 12x12 paper stack. Hope that helps, and I'd love to see what you create using the template. :0)
Hugs
Annette
