RUDOLF DAYS CHALLENGE..............FEBRUARY 2023 ENTRY

 

Hi and welcome to all my very talented and craft loving friends.

It's time for another Rudolf Days Challenge over at Scrppymo's Blog and as it's not my month for DT I can enter the challenge.

These cards I made late last year and haven't shown them yet, but some of my blog friends may have received them for Christmas 2022.






Both cards are 6"x6" in size.

They are very similar in style I just stamped the design slightly differently.

I stencilled that background with a Lavinia Stencil.

Then I used some freebie stamps from and old Stamping Magazine.

The sentiment is a freebie one also.

I coloured the image of the Robin sitting on the planting pots with Derwnt Water Colouring Pencils.

I also stamped the envelopes to match as well.


Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.

I really appreciate every visit and wonderful comment you make.

Lots of crafty love. JENNY.


I would like to enter this into the following challenges.
