Christmas Card Club

Christmas Card Club
Hi lovely visitors to my blog.  I hope you haven't given up on me. It's been a hectic time here with trade shows, christenings, end of term and leaving primary school events for my children and sadly more recently my brother's father in law passed away very suddenly.  A lovely man who will be missed greatly.

Today I'm getting back in the flow with Sue's challenge for our Christmas Card Club.  She asked us to make a card with a Christmas teddy and I know in the depths of my craft room I have one somewhere, but for today he's incognito dressed as a naughty reindeer!!!  This is a stamp a bought years ago and have never used!!!! You can all relate to that I'm sure!  I've coloured him partially with my new blendies and my markers both from Stampin' Up! and I've used the brand new heart border punch to fall in with my sentiment  - Hoping your Christmas is trimmed with the love and warmth of family and friends -  A few doodle dots with my white gel pen and we're done bar the sequins, dazzling details (glitter glue), stampin' distress tool and chalk talk framelits for the sentiment.

Colours used are real red, pacific point, soft suede, crumb cake, daffodil delight, old olive, cherry cobbler, basic black and whisper white.  Sentiment is from Stampin' Up! Christmas Messages which is still available until 15 August.

Please do go check out the other ladies 'teddy bears' by clicking on the links in my sidebar for more Christmas inspiration. After all we're over half way there already!!!

Enjoy what's left of your weekend.

Hugs Zx

Sorry Zoe but I really have giggled so loudly seeing your Rudolph! Of course I know that it is a teddy in his Pantomime outfit! Beautiful card though and I love the bright colours. Teddy looks very convincing incognito!
