Christmas reindeer


'Christmas reindeer' is the theme that Rita chose for the Christmas Card Club challenge for this fortnight (I apologise to the CCC girls that this is late, but life sometimes gets in the way).

For my card I used a piece of Authentique peaceful paper (I love this paper pad and will be sorry when I've used it all up). The reindeer inked with memento black is one from 'Christmas motives' set by My Paper World. The small round stamp is one of a set of six that I bought recently. Neither of these stamps had been used before, so I'm also adding this card to my own CHNC challenge 199 to 'use something forgotten or never used.


This is also for:

  3. Hi Hazel, this is a very elegant and opulent card with it's beautiful papers and stamped reindeer, no worries about it being late though, I think with the lead up to Christmas and illnesses too at this time of year it is to be expected.

  21. Hazel, Hazel! I always look forward to seeing your creations! You have such a great eye for patterns and I love how this one has the look of vintage fabric or something treasured from the past. Great color palette, too, and the bit of silver is just right! You've done a wonderful job once again and I'm so glad you shared this with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!
