The 25th of the month is here again and that means it's time for the Rudolph Days challenge over at Scrappymo's. It my turn on the DT this month and my card for you has been made using the New USB by Sheena Douglas. I've used this gorgeous digi stamp of a beautiful Robin sitting on a branch. I really enjoyed getting the pencils out and losing myself for a couple of hours colouring 8 of these and then making them up into cards ready to go into my box for Christmas. The base card is A5 and the silver matting is from some wallpaper that I found in the DIY shop prior to lockdown last year. Not sure that I would want it on my walls but it looks great as a backing card. I do hope that you can come and join in the fun this month, Maureen always has a wonderful prize for the person who is chosen at random as the winner.
Hoping that this finds you all keeping well and staying safe.
Thank you for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Wow, what a marathon effort colouring eight of these beautiful cards - love them. I agree the silver layer looks really good here but would think of limited appeal as wallpaper although of course there is no accounting for taste is there???
A super set of Christmas cards Sue, your Robin is gorgeous and I like the wallpaper border - very resourceful of you.

I love that background. I had a feeling it was going to be wallpaper. It makes the perfect back ground. Lovely cards. [Bunny]
I love these cards Sue, beautiful Robin and the wallpaper makes a super mat! I thought I was the only one who brings home samples of wallpaper for card making

Wonderful card, love it. Anesha
What a gorgeous set of cards and that wallpaper looks fabulous on a card! I can't imagine it on a wall, but your keen eyes knew it would make perfect cards! Very creative and so pretty!
Colouring so many, Sue!!
Very impressed with the use of the wallpaper - great suggestion. I will have to look out when I am next in a DIY. Like you I am not sure that i would want it on my walls! We have now bought a plot and are thinking of house design... I think the walls will just have emulsion!
A lovely set of cards!
Best wishes from Aus!

Happy Rudolf Says😊💐 gorgeous card, congrats
Have a great day
You really were clever to bag that wonderful paper for card-making Sue! It makes a wonderful border. I always love a card with a robin on it for Christmas and yours is a handsome chap and beautifully coloured. I'm like you in thinking it's a lovely relaxing activity to colour some images! What a great idea to put that verse on the front of the card too. Vicky x
What a wonderful use of the wallpaper - it looks great for your robins, sets them off so nicely. Great cards.
Hi Sue
A lovely batch of cards .. .. and yes, I have been known to use wallpaper samples on my cards too.
I have some gorgeous navy blue glitter wallpaper and am just waiting for the rolls to be reduced before I invest in one. I can't imagine anyone putting it on their walls .. .. it would definitely trap the dust LOL!!!
Hope you are OK.
Love Jules xx
Oooo I so love robins and well done you for making a few of them,
Luv Your Fellow Teamie, Sam x
