October Rudolph Days Challenge
I have a new format this month as I am not able to post the rules due to the new
blogger playing up. So, it is straight into the Rudolph Days Challenge!
Our designers have been busy creating wonderful cards for your inspiration . First
up is
Sue at Sues Crafty Corner blog.
Sue has made us this beautiful winter cottage scene, set within a gorgeous
stencil. I love that beautiful colour of blue she used for the stencilled bauble
design.
Best of all, Sue made multiples of this lovely design. I hope you will pop by her blog and leave her some praise.
**************************************************************************
Next up is Sam at Whispers Cards blog.
Sam has made us some lovely Christmas bauble cards. First up is this very pretty lavender and white card. I love the non traditional colors used here and the lovely way the baubles are all linked but slightly different!
Sam's second card is another bauble card but a fresh, new design. I love the green glimmer paper background behind that forrest of pretty tree design paper. It really sets of the beautiful die cut tree bauble. Love the gold glimmer card used here and also on the border die strip. I hope you will pop by Sam's bog and leave her some comments on these lovely cards!
My card is a simple decoupage card. The decoupage sheet was from a stack of images one of my Langley Stamp group members brought to give away. She was getting out of decoupage. IT is four layers with the addition of some slender pop dots. I coloured the edges of the flower area pop dots with a red copic pen, as they were close to the edge and I wanted them to blend in. I would try this again as I was happy with the outcome.
The background DP is a snippet and the gold fine cord is from my stash. The pretty Merry Christmas is a glitter sentiment that was gifted from a blogger friend. (You now who you are and thanks again).
Here is the side view of the red pop dots.
Our prizes this month are a choice of this Tutti Designs Winter Cottage die
or this Studio Lights Stag stamp

Wow fabulous cards by all and another great challenge and give away good luck to all enjoy your day x
Wonderful inspiration from the DT.
A lovely selection of cards. I can't believe this is the last but one challenge before Christmas! xx
Wonderful inspirational cards Maureen, Kate x
I love all the DT cards for this challenge - the baubles are all lovely! Mo, your card turned out so lovely with those angled panels and gold trimmings, and the sparkly sentiment looks perfect :)
I'm still struggling with New Blogger too! Super inspiration cards this month.
Happy Rudolf Days everyone. Gosh, I'm early this month. Hope everyone is keeping safe and well. Awesome inspiration from the team. Hugz
Happy Rudolph day! xxx
What lovely use Sue has made of that stencil. I find them quite tricky to get a good result from.
I love your card. It has that warm and cosy feeling. I like decoupage, but it doesn't make cards that are easy for international mailing so I don't do so much now.
How quickly we are approaching the end of another year of this challenge. I so enjoy taking part, so Thank you for all the work you do to host it. Kate x
Fabulous cards from the DT - I'll be linking my card soon!

super pretty cards , congrats all team
hugs from Chile
I was glad I had some snippets to work with as I am still not feeling well enough to do a lot of card making. I am enjoying the cards you created though.
Thanks for another Rudolph Day challenge Mo. How fun that two of the DT used Christmas ornament designs, and those are gorgeous cards. Your decoupage card is just exquisite and looks like so much work! You did that kit proud.
Fabulous samples, so inspiring!
Thanks so much for another challenge to build my Christmas Card stash!
The new blogger is a pain in the neck! I'm still having trouble too. Thank you for your new Rudolph Day challenge and I'm happy to be here on the first day for once! Thank you for the beautiful inspiration from you and your team! Have a great evening!
A fabulous set of cards from the DT as always.

Hi Mo - yes this new format of Blogger takes a bit getting used to !
That Blue is stunning and the card so pictureasque - Cheers Maurs xxx
Hi the work by the Design Team is gorgeous. Thank you for this challenge. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Hi Mo
Great inspiration from the DT - and what a fabulous idea to colour the edges of your pop dots. I never even considered that!
Have to admit my blog posts are very hit and miss at the moment - hopefully Mr Blogger will settle down soon.
Love Jules xx
Hi Mo
Tried to leave a comment earlier but I don't think it went through as I got an error message! If you receive two comments then I apologise.
More lovely Christmas inspiration from the DT .. .. your card is lovely .. .. and what a clever idea to colour the edges of your pop dots. I have never considered doing this. Great tip!
Mr Blogger seems to have a mind of his own at the moment. My posts have been acting very weird for a while now. But hey ho! They aren't taking any money off us!
Love Jules xx
Lots of lovely inspiration here as always! I love your decoupage card Maureen with its lovely cosy feel and pretty details. Not long to go now...!! Vicky x

wonderful inspiration from the DT and yourself, Maureen! I keep hanging my nose over that Bauble Stencil that Sue used and have managed to resist... so far!

Great turnout this month as we get closer, Mo! Your card and Sam's and Sue's cards are sensational! I'm just playing for fun and thank you, as always, for doing this fun challenge! Keep well! Hugs, Darnell
What a cozy scene on your card, Maureen, and a fantastic idea to color the sides of the pop dots so they blend in! Love that bright red poinsettia! Lots of awesome dimension!
Great DT cards also this time! Thank you!
