Rudolph Day - May

It's the 25th of the month and that means it's Rudolph Day, when we have the chance to share a Christmas Card (and possibly win a prize) over at Scrappy Mo's.

I've been playing with my Cookie Cutter Christmas stamps and punch again.


Actually the background is one that's been hanging around unused for several months. I made it for another project, and had been intending to use the faux letterpress technique but something went wrong - perhaps I used the wrong kind of ink, I can't recall what exactly I did but it produced a rather pretty background that was all wrong for the project I wanted it for. However, these cute little Eskimos seem happy enough with it, especially now I've blinged it up with a few gems.

As well as the Rudolph Days Challenge I am sharing this with
Addicted to stamps and more - Holiday
Watercooler Wednesday - Christmas

I think these eskimos are very sweet and certainly seem very happy to be there Jane. The snowflakes background with the blue ink goes beautifully too. Thank you for joining in with the May Rudolph Days Challenge. x
