August Rudolph Days

Well I'm rather late to the Rudolph Days challenge this month as I've been away with my Daughter and Grandsons. We had a wonderful time with glorious weather returning on Tuesday after the Bank Holiday rush. My washing and ironing is now done and put away,so time for my card for this month. I used a Penny Black stamp for the background, the stag is a new stamp from Crafters Companion and the sentiment from Chocolate Baroque. I first stamped the background then masking with paper used distress inks to colour. Then I stamped the stag and sentiment before finishing with some glitter and a white posca pen for the snowflakes. Now as you know I never just stop at one card, below are a further six (should have been seven but one fell victim to fingerprints).



Thank you for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Super card(s)..love your design, I am partial to a stag at Christmas I have to say! Seems you have been in production mode!

beautiful Christmas cards - shame about losing one to fingerprints and of course a strategically placed butterfly just wouldn't work in this case would it.

I'm so pleased to hear that you had a lovely holiday with your family - we were away last week as well, back today, we were really lucky with the weather.

Hi Sue

Your cards are beautiful! I love them very, very much.

Shame about number 7.

The stag looks wonderful against that lovely wintery background.

Sorry for being a stranger .. .. things have been a bit hectic at my end.

Love Jules xx

Gorgeous card design! I love your masking and inking, and of course the beautiful deer in the spotlight! I'm impressed that you made so many! Nice work for Rudolph Days!

Darnell said...

You are such an inspiration, Sue! I am doing lots better this year making two cards every time I make one, but next year, I'm going to try and follow your lead and make even more. I don't know that I'll manage a half-dozen, but anything more is a plus for the stash box! Your Rudolph design is stunning! I swear, with that perfect dusk sky, I can feel the chill and the snow swirling around me as the stag and I stare in awe at each other! A magical moody design!! Hugs, Darnell
