Hi Everyone
I hope you had a good weekend and a happy Monday! Our wedding fayre was another good one and we met some lovely new happy couples.
Today "some" of my new year resolutions have come into play (there are sooooo many of them!! LOL!!!)
I have told myself that this year I want November and December to be much calmer than last year .. .. there was so much wedding work that I just didn't have enough time to make as many cards as my customers and I wanted .. .. .. and I have to admit that I actually missed playing with all of my Christmas crafting goodies.
So today I took a bit of colouring with me to my Mum's and then when I got home tonight made the following:
This used:
Image and Sentiment: Hampton Art Stamps "4611" Rudolph
Backing Papers: My Minds Eye "Joyous"
ProMarkers
Crystal Glamour Dust
Metallic Ribbon
So this little make has covered a few new years resolutions .. ..
1. Make Christmas cards ALL year
2. Use up old paper stacks
3. Enter more Challenges
This card was made especially for a brand new fortnightly challenge called "Christmas Kickstart Challenge" which has been started by one of my lovely blog buddies "Dotty Jo"
and the theme for the first challenge is "Rudolph and Friends".
Christmas card number 1 in the box!!! Yay!!!
Oh Jules it has been a long time since i saw this stamp always a big hit with people that received it and I must find mine and dust him of. your card is stunning and thanks for reminding me of this old fave. Always a good idea to do some early while still in the Christmas spirit.
ReplyDeleteFabulous image, brilliant card and you've made one more Christmas card for 2019 than me! Glad your wedding fayre went well. xx
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card and I love your Rudolph stamp.

I didn't get to use all of my seasonal 'stuff' either which may have been due to time restraints but probably more likely that I have much more than I NEED!!! This is a lovely card to start off your collection, beautifully coloured and such a lovable Rudolph. Thanks for the link to the challenge blog
ReplyDeleteA fabulous no. 1 too. Your Rudolph image is lovely and great papers too x
ReplyDeleteHi Jules, so glad you've played along with your gorgeous card! That's one cut Rudolph. Thanks for joining The Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo x
ReplyDeleteA super card Jules, Rudolph is gorgeous and you've coloured him beautifully.
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased that the Wedding Fayre went well and good luck with your resolution - I make that one every year and usually fail dismally!

What a wonderful image and card Jules, love it.
ReplyDeleteMy resolution is to cut way down on crafting goods, and to be more discerning in what I do buy, Kate x x
Now Jules, that's an amazing red nose!! Brilliant image and a fab card. Hugs, Carol S.xxx
ReplyDeleteHello Jules, long time since I last came by. Just realised why as I was no longer following you. Now corrected. Love your Rudolph with his rosy red nose. Hugs Mrs A.
