August Rudolph Days
I'm lucky enough to have a whole room to myself for crafting, but as it accommodates two hobbies - that of buying craft supplies against actually using the craft supplies to craft with - my room was rather crowded. I have just spent the last week cleaning and clearing my room so that I can get on and craft and actually use some of the stuff that I've bought. However my card for the Rudolph Days Challenge this month uses a stamp that was given to me recently by a friend who said it was not her kind of stamp and she wouldn't use it and the white card was some off cuts that were sitting in a pile of off cuts, so that makes this card also suitable for Pixies Snippets Playground too. I stamped the image using black and coloured just the scarf and poinsettia with just red. I ran a red pen around that edge of the white card and then mounted onto a craft card base. The sentiment which I stamped onto the edge of the card is from Chocolate Baroque. I'm not sure who made the stamp, but it was a wood mounted one. Finally I added some flat back gems to the star.

Great card Sue! That snowman is wonderful, I love that he needs minimum colouring yet has such impact! Love it!
Hugs

That is absolutely gorgeous, Sue! I love it! Simple but perfect
You opening lines made me smile Sue, a lovely lady who used to come to my classes always bought everything we used, however, she never ever used any of them and had a spare room bursting with goodies. In fact the only cards she made were in class.
Your snowman image certainly is a cheery fellow and makes such a pretty card.

I've more or less finished tidying and decluttering my craft room, just need to re-do some labels for the boxes. I must admit, having a tidy craft room has improved my mojo and I'm determined to keep putting everything back in the right place after each project. Well, that's the plan! I love your snowman card, what a brilliant stamp and he looks wonderful with just a touch of colour. The gems are a perfect finishing touch. x
A super Christmas card Sue, such a jolly snowman, he looks great mounted onto Kraft.
It's lovely to have nice tidy craft room and to be able to find everything isn't it - just a shame it doesn't usually stay like that for long!

Lovely card! Christmas is soon;-))
Love your snowman Sue...he really is jolly and makes a lovely card. I am still doing my craft room but e jigging stamp and die storage in the process...lengthy job...like you I buy and store too! I have to say you do discover what you have this way though! x
Gosh I think that is a really super image and a really great card and I love the font of the sentiment.

This is a lovely snowman, Sue, You have a done a great job here. Loving the sentiment stamped in that direction and also love the red pen idea around the outside of the image.
Thanks for taking part in the August Rudolph Days Challenge.
Me again, but without my official hat on!
Loved your comment about the two hobbies...and organizing. Since seeing your wonderful organizing ideas, I have taken all my teensy Studio G and teensy Imaginesce stamps and taken them out of the system i had them filed in. I am using your idea of the laminated sheet to arrange them in themes...same themes as the rest of my stamps. This way I can just interfile them into my existing themes! Thanks for the ideas!!!
That's a really nice snowman stamp and the touches of red are so right.
A fabulous festive card. Thank you for taking part in the "My Time To Craft" challenge. Sam x
What an adorable snowman Sue, fabulous card. I think we all have an issue with buying crafts and using them...only way is to stop buying and boy that's hard/.x
Well that is one gorgeous snowman and a great layout too, thanks for joining us at Augusts Rudolph Days Challenge, luv Sam x
Love that stamp Sue, a very traditional looking snowman! I know what you mean about your craft room, mine was pretty much the same, but I have been de-cluttering and tidying too!
