Rudolph Days - January 2026

Wow, a bit like buses - three consecutive posts come along at once - and this first one is my entry for the current Rudolph Days Challenege HERE


I used:

- 7" x 5" white card blank, side opening

- the image is from a CAS Christmas card we were sent this past Christmas - die cut using a die from the Heffy Doodle A6 set of 'Stitched Rectangle' dies

- backed the image rectangle using a snippet of Tonic 'Firestone Red' mirror car, trimmed to leave just a narrow frame arounf the image

- glued the image onto the die cut panel and set it aside

- trimmed a bigger snippet of the Firestone Red card to 6.75" x 4.75" and glued it to the card front

- then trimmed a whole sheet of grey stars patterned paper from the Honey Bee Stamps 'Make it Merry' paper pad down to 6.5" x 4.5" - and glued it onto the front ot the red mirror card layer

- finally, I used thin sticky pads to adhere the image onto the card front - luckily it came with the sentiment as well! I used a slick of glue stick across the sticky pads and can't sing the praises of that tip from Chrisse Stokes enough!

- finished!

Quick and easy - once I realised that the greyish-green tree needed a grey background!
