It's time for the Rudolph Day Challenge again already, they seem to come by quicker and quicker every time.
Here is the card I've made this time. It's a new Penny Black stamp which I stamped with Archival brown ink onto white multi media card. I added a little colour and shading with my new Zig water colour pens. I cut the panel to fit the front of an A6 card blank, using a deckle edge blade in my cutter. Next I used Distress inks, Broken China and Stormy Sky with a duster brush to add some colour around the edges, and then ran a gold Krylon pen along the deckle edge. The greeting is also Penny Black but from a different set, stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed with Wow gold embossing powder. I used a white Signo gel pen to brighten up the snowy bits and then added a little bit of crystal glitter. then all that was left to do was to stick it to the front of the red card. A nice easy one to make and I will making more like it to build my collection up.
Now I am going to link this up at Scraps of Life With Scrappy Mo for the
Rudolph Day Challenge - Anything Christmas.

This PB stamp with the pretty snow laden pine cones is a beautiful image Jean and I love how you have coloured it and the deckle edge suits it perfectly and it stands out well against the red card base. It's great to see you here posting again, I have missed seeing your pretty creations. x
