Noel Reindeer

It's the 25th, so the start of the February Rudolph Days Challenge.  It's a short month, so only a four days to enter the challenge.
My card today uses a recently bought die which I first saw over in the Playground.  It happened to fall into my basket when I ordered another die which I also saw in the Playground - thanks for enabling me twice, Di!  😉  The die cut used up a snippet of brown card with a Lil'inker, 'Noel Word Die'.  I added a red nose, (the waste from another die cut) and two googly eyes.  I've has the pot of eyes for at least ten years, so they are almost antique!   Two strips of washi tape finished off my card.  I'm way behind making Christmas cards this year, so I'll be making a batch of this design as it was quick and easy to make.  It will be good to use some of my many reels washi tape too.

I am joining in the following challenges:
Rudolph Days February Challenge
Pixie's Snippets Playground - Challenge #346 ~ Use snippets
Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round ~ Carols (Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer)

    What a fun die-cut! And a beautiful CAS-card with the little accent in red! I too have the intention to use more washitape; way to many beautiful designs of that just laying around in my box... Hugs, Gerrina

    Fabulous card Lix, that really is a lovely die and I love the added googly eyes. The Playground does have a lot to answer for with all the 'enabling' that goes on! xx

    I was lucky enough to win this die recently in the big playground Christmas draw but haven't used it yet. Great idea to make the face on the reindeer with eyes and nose - love it.

    What a fab die and I love how you've added a fun element by giving it a red nose and 'antique' eyes. A super Christmas card that will surely raise a smile x

    How cute Liz and I love the googly eyes and red nose and the pretty washi tape down the side goes perfectly. I haven't really made any Christmas cards yet this year and I must not forget about them until into November which is what I usually end up doing...lol. x

    This card is so darn cute. It would be a great one to batch bake for grankids to take to school and give to their classmates, as all kids love googly eyes (as well the kid that lives on in every adult).


    Thanks for taking part in the February Rudolph Days Challenge.
