It’s Rudolph Day over at my friend
Sarn’s blog Stamping for
Pleasure
Basically in an attempt to make a
decent dent on your Christmas cardmaking Sandra has for many years designated
the 25th of the month as Rudolph day and to join in we simply need
to make a Christmas card for it.
I would normally put all my Christmas
stuff away in January for it not to come down from the top of my bookcases
until September but I am trying to keep Christmas crafting through the year, it
is far less stressful and ther isn’t the same pressure for time so it is
worthwhile doing and a person can try can’t they?
Anyhoo, this image was already
coloured in and was supposed to be for last Christmas but I didn’t quite get
there….. The image is by Happileigh Scrappin’ and I have created decoupage
layers for dimension and added glitter to the clothing. The papers are from
various pads and are Papermania, DCWV and Dovecraft. I think the chipboard shapes
on the tag are from a Let’s Make Cards pack, ribbon and brad are from stash.
If you fancy taking part in Rudolph
day too Sarn has added a linky to her blog
