This week only---- on the Great Impressions Blog we are making Christmas cards that are inspired by a Christmas Carol...and you have to guess what it is! Since I am last in line for the song week, you only have today to leave me a comment with your guess on the Challenge Blog if you want to get a chance to win a prize. Now, I can be pretty bad about guessing this sort of thing, so I will leave a BIG hint somewhere in this post!
I used this festive DP from Echo Park-I LOVE plaid and in red and green-oh so yummy! I used this cute, cute, cute Merry Reindeer stamp. I stamped Rudolph once and then stamped and colored again. I cut out Rudy and added him on dimensionals. I think you can see that in the bottom picture.
I cut out the icicle border with my Silhouette and covered it with glitter for a sparkly touch as well. I finished it off with some pretty ribbon and Silhouette cut snowflakes and the Merry Christmas sentiment.
Jenny said it best so I here is her description of all the shenanigans we have going on over at the Great Impressions Blog!

Tee hee, I'm not quite sure, but I'll take a wild guess....Rudolf, the Red Nosed Reindeer? Tee hee... This is cute as can be, Sue! What a fun image to work with! Have a great day!
Very cute! Love that very sweet image.

He looks so festive with the holly between his teeth and the bauble hanging off his antlers! Love your card Sue and the plaid paper is gorgeous :) I was thinking it must be Rudolf the red nosed reindeer too! Sarah x

This is adorable. Love the reindeer image with the ornament hanging off his antlers! I also like the papers and the icicle strip across the card. Wonderful colouring too!
