Rudolph

Welcome to my new follower, Nancy of Scandinancy Creates.

 It's been SO hot today, but I did manage to make a Christmas card first thing this morning before the temperature began to rise too much. 
The red background was embossed with an Embossalicious 'Nordic Christmas Card' e/f.  I used a Poppystamps 'Let it Snow Channel' die and backed the white die cut with a strip of the plain red card.  The reindeer is a Memory Box 'Leaping Deer' die cut and the snowflake is from the Memory Box 'Twilight Snowflakes' set of dies.  For some added sparkle I added  tiny clear gems to the middle of the large snowflake and the 'O/snowflake' in the sentiment. 

I am joining in the following challenges:
July Rudolf Days Challenge ~ Anything Christmas
Poppystamps Challenge #58 ~ Animal Kingdom
Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #196 ~ Christmas in July

    I tend to find first thing or late at night are the best times to craft at the moment Liz! Super festive creation. Shabneez x

    Hi Liz,
    Happy Rudolf Days.
    That is a fantastic card and the same embossing floder I used.
    I love the beautiful red colour and your super leaping Reindeer.
    Such a lovely sentiment die also.
    Thank you for joining the Rudolf Challenge.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L. DT

    I love this bright red with the white Liz and the deer is perfectly placed on top of the sentiment border and a pretty snowflake accompanying it too. x

    Good for you making this Rudolph card in this heat Liz! I just don't understand the heat and how it is everywhere. We had it, now you guys have it. Wild weather as I keep having to say. Your Christmas card is stunning. I love the red/white color combo and I am loving that sentiment. Loving that embossing folder, haven't seen that one before. I also love how your stag and snowflake just pop off the red. Very striking card! Hugs Brenda

    Your white reindeer and sentiment details pop right off that red embossed background.

    I have read that you are going through a heat wave...hope you are safe and cool!

    Thanks for taking part in the July Rudolph Days Challenge.

    It is hard working in the heat isn't it, and it seems strange to be making Christmas cards when the thermometer shows 37º in the shade, but you have done a grand job with this one. The red just shouts Christmas even without the deer and snowflake. Kate P. xx
