Wobble Spring Rudolph Merriest Christmas Wishes Card

Because gatherings are not happening at the moment our Slimming World group is meeting virtually with a weekly Zoom video call.  During one meeting we were talking about keeping ourselves occupied and combating boredom during lockdown.  I said that wasn't an issue for me because of my card making hobby and I went on to say that I might get a few Christmas cards made.  One lady said "ooh make me one, I love reindeer" - so here is Lisa's reindeer Christmas card!

I embossed a square of white CS with the Liane Creatief 'Snowflakes Background' embossing folder, added some Granny Apple Green ribbon and glued the panel to the front of a 5 3/4" square Real Red card base.  I stamped Rudolph and the background scene images using Memento Rich Cocoa ink and I added colour with SU! Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.  I glued the image panel to a mat layer of Granny Apple Green CS, popped that up, fussy cut Rudolph, mounted him on a wobble action spring and attached him to the front of the image panel.  I die cut a sentiment label and added two red Glitter Enamel Dots.


Here's the inside of the card.  I thought the teeny tiny heart die cuts were ideal to use with the 'smiles & love' sentiment!  The tiny heart die comes with the SU! 'Well Written' die set - I was so careful while using it as it could so easily get lost!


I stamped snowflakes all over the envelope flap.


A few snowflakes were stamped on the front of the envelope too and I also added a die cut name label with more Glitter Enamel Dots.


Well, that's one Christmas card added to the box, I'm hoping to add lots more but let's see how that goes!
