I used:
- 6" x 6" square white card blanks
- backing paper from Wild Rose Studio's 'Annabelle's Christmas' paper pack
- white sparkly ribbon from my ribbon box
- printed panels to match the paper backing, just die cut with a Spellbinders die
- sentiments by Craftwork Cards
Quick and easy cards today - thank goodness for papers with matching toppers :)
I'd like to say a HUGE thank you to Sarn for all her hard work! It's been such fun playing along, as well as getting a head start on Christmas cards. The very first time I played along with Rudolph Day was back in July 2011- that shook me I must admit!
I expect most of you will also know that the lovely Scrappy Mo is taking the Rudolph Challenge over from Sarn, so it will continue after Christmas - yay!
I'd also like to add these cards into Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge, where the current theme is 'Getting Ready For Christmas' (posting cards and dressing the tree is a most important/essential part of pre-Christmas activities) - as well as Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra, where it's always 'Anything Goes'.

Those printed panels are so cute. And what a great way to make a couple of adorable cards quickly. Especially since time is at such a premium at this time of year.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous printed panel and I love your backing papers with a festive and sparkly ribbon, An easy and quickest way for making couple of cards!
ReplyDeleteBoth are gorgeous Di although the top one is my favorite ;-)

Both cards are gorgeous! Like the bottom one best though!
ReplyDeleteI love the way the panels match the backing papers on these. It doesn´t happen for me because not many companies will post paper pads out here, so I try to pick up one or two when I am visiting family. I thought at first these were LOTV images. The style is similar. I have just bought a pack of those which will make my final big batch or card quite quick and easy to make.
ReplyDeleteI love the reds in your first card. For the second one I would have added a dark mat to lift the image from the busy background, but that is just my opinion - no criticism intended.x. I wonder whether any little girls ever wore hats that big. I thought the same when I was colouring the huge cap on the little boy in my card!

Loving your cards Di as always well presented too! x
ReplyDeleteWow - I thought they were LOTV at first glance. Thanks for the info! Love that Wild Rose produce matching papers for their images. These cards are so sweet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a Rudolph Day stalwart Di. Much appreciated.
Hugs, Sarn xxx

These are gorgeous, Di. I like the way the papers match the toppers and the cute kitten in the second is a clear winner for me! Oh, alright, the puppies are adorable too :) Hugs. Elizabeth xx
ReplyDeleteThese both look too pretty to be that easy! Love the toppers and I'm thinking I may need to look into them!
ReplyDeleteThose images are just precious, and I love the perfectly matching papers and sparkly bows! Those tiny sentiment panels really caught my eye too!! Cute cards!
