RUDOLF DAYS CHALLENGE .....JANUARY 2020


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

I do hope everyone is keeping well, and also keeping warm and cosy this winters time.

Today I have a Christmas card to join in the 
over at scrappymo's blog.
The challenge runs from the 25th of the month to the end of the month.
As I was not designing this month I thought I would join the challenge which I am allowed to.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
A couple of years ago I joined in Loll's 12 days of Christmas Tag Challenge, and made quite  few tags so I thought I would make use of them and make them into cards.
I made one last year and this is my second one.
The choir boys are a Hunkydory image.
The poinsettias were made with a Robert Adams Die which I won years ago on the Pixies Snippets Challenge.
The Glittered Happy Christmas wooden sentiment was from the Works last year.
As I used lots of snippets on this I will also be joining the Pixies Snippets Challenge.

Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.
It's so much appreciated.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
