February Rudolph Days

Wow, where did February go to. It's the 25th already so that means it's time for another Rudolph Days Challenge. As always Maureen has a beautiful prize which some lucky person will be chosen at random to win. For my cards this month I have used left overs from 4 albums that I made before Christmas (3 of them were for Christmas presents) using the Graphic 45 collection Let It Snow. It was such a beautiful collection to work with and I saved all the pieces that I had left, some of them were quite large and I even had a couple of Ephemera cards left which I mixed with some smaller cut out toppers and borders. I managed to make 4 A5 cards and 4 A6 cards and I still have a little bit of the paper left, I might even manage to get a couple more cards out of it. As I have used left overs for these I thought I would pop over to the Snippets Playground this week and join in the fun there too, it's been a long time since I was last there. Everything except the card bases was made from off cuts of the collection.

 

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

CAS Card

It's been a long time since I made something to enter into a Challenge, with the exception of Rudolph Days. But the challenge this week over on the Allsorts blog is CAS with the option of Elegance. I didn't go for the elegance but did manage to make a CAS card using an A6 card base from my stash and a stamp and stencil from Lavinia Stamps and the sentiment is from Chocolate Baroque. I started by using one of my brushes and a stencil, the ink was what was left on the brush from a previous project, then I over stamped with one of the new Lavinia Stamps before adding Just A Note. I don't usually do CAS so this was quite a challenge for me not to carry on adding more and more to it.
