August Rudolph Days Challenge

Once again. it is time for the Rudolph Days Challenge. You have till the end of the month to submit your Christmas card or Christmas project, and don't forget if you are submitting your same card to other challenges, we have a limit of ten other challenges in total, including ours. Don't forget to leave a comment here, as well.

Our designers have been busy creating inspiration for you. First up is Sam, at Whispers Cards blog. Sam has created this darling Christmas tree card. I love the pretty design papers she chose, and best of all I love the way the verse is highlighted by the apperture Sam has cut from the embossed tree cardstock! Such a cool idea. That pretty piece of pink ribbon is perfect and really makes the background DP shine. I hope you will pop over to Sams blog and leave her some praise!


Next is Marjeta from Marjeta's Creative Company. Marjeta has made this adorable snowman card! This little trio of snowmen make me grin, as this image is so fun. Marjeta has added lots of texture on this card. The background looks great, it looks just like a snowy day! The snippet of ribbon also reminds of snow. I hope you will pop over to Marjeta's blog and leave her some praise.
Our prize this month is this Woodware, Robin Post stamp.

Hi Maureen,
what very delightful DT cards will pop over and leaqve them some love soon.
Love the stamp you are offering for the prize this month it's very much like the image on my first card on my entry.
I was given a Hunkydory little book of Christmas images,and
I was luck enough to make 7 cards so far out of the book and have put 3 on my blog entry.
So I have 4 more for my stash.
I do do hope all is well with everyone in your family.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Helen said...

Fabulous cards as always.

Hope you are keeping well.
