Happy Easter And Happy Birthday Sis

Today is not only Easter Sunday but also my sisters Birthday. A day she will spend on her own as both her Daughters are grown and moved away. I made this card for her using the Country Cottage Collection from Heartfelt Creations, this is the second outing for this gorgeous stamp and die set (I think this is going to be a favourite of mine) but this time in a different colourway. Hubby played postman and drove the few miles between our houses and popped it through her letterbox. She's been working since the self isolating began as she works in a school and is part of the team keeping things going for the keyworkers children. I'm going to enter this card into the Penny Black challenge this month which is Anything Goes.

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

Stay safe and take care

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.
