Happy Rudolph Day
And happy Saturday to you all. It's raining here so no gardening for me today. Instead, it's been the perfect day for staying in and making this month's Rudolph Day card for Maureen's challenge over on
Scraps of Life by Scrappymo.
This entire card is made from snippets and leftovers - my self-imposed challenge for this year is to use up as many scraps as possible. A few weeks ago I test stamped the robin on a branch on to a tiny off-cut of white cardstock but then it didn't get used. Now it's been water-coloured and cut out - painstakingly, I should add - and it's made a lovely little topper for this card. The greeting was cut twice from scraps of red card and layered up to create more dimension.
That's all from me today - short and sweet.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Just lovely Elizabeth, can't go wrong with robins on Christmas cards. Beautifully designed and coloured.
