RUDOLF DAYS CHALLENGE....DT CARDS.....MARCH 2023

 

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

Well it's the 25th of the month again and time for the Rudolf Days Challenge over at

SCRAPPYMO'S BLOG 

The challenge runs from today till the end of the month.

ONE ENTRY PER PERSON

but you can put more than one card on your post.

There is always a lovely prize for the person randomly drawn out.

 Here is what I made this month for my DT cards.

 


 




These are all 5"x5" in size.

I rounded off the corners on all of them.

The dies used are a mixture of cheap Amazon ones and the holly one is a Memory Box one sent to me by Maureen.

The Holly die cut I heat embossed with pearl embossing powder and used some red Nuvo drops on the berries.

I decided for the majority of this years Christmas cards to make smaller ones.

I will only make larger ones for my family.

 

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.

GRANDDAUGHTER'S 15th BIRTHDAY CARD

 

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

I know I am a very bad blogger at the moment just finding it hard to get everything done these days, as my hip is very bad and I can't have the op as I suffer with Restless Leg Syndrome which means my leg jumps lots at night and if I have the op the jumping could put the new hip out.

Sorry about the March challenge over at Moving Along With the Times I have only just seen it otherwise I would have taken down my post.


This is a 8"x8" size card.

The glitter card is Tonic and the paper is from a 12"x12" pad from the Range.

Now as I can only get two full sheets of this paper to fit the card I had to join  it so I used a strip of the glitter card to cover the join.

I made the flowers and leaves with dies and also the stick pin just below the bow.

Numbers dies are Carnation Crafts.


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.
