It's Hump Day Wednesday AND Rudolph Day!

Morning readers

I've a make to share with you today .... since it's Rudolph Day what else could it be but a Christmas card? One year I was REALLY late making my dear hubby a Christmas card and I said I would NEVER leave it that late again so, here we are - it's MARCH! I'm DETERMINED to make this self-isolation period at least productive ...... 2021 Christmas card here I come ... yes I DID say 2021!!!

My card

And a closer view of my image section

 

The front, back and inside of my card along with the front and back of my envelope

Materials used:

• 5" x 7" white, 300gsm card and matching sized envelope
• Two pieces of white card cut to fit
• Two pieces of navy card, cut to mat
• Make It Crafty Santa image (Cheery Santa) stamped using Memento tuxedo black (I already had a mask stamped and fussy cut out, from a previous inking)
• With my mask in place I overlaid the stencil (Tim Holtz mini stencil set #20) and, using an Aldi stencil brush and Memento grey flannel ink, applied the colour through the stencil ...... like snow!
• Having removed the mask I coloured the image using copic markers and Kaisercraft glitter gel pens
• PSX sentiments (G-1591 and F-2594) stamped using Versafine Clair morning mist ink
• Close To My Heart "Bitty Sparkles" used to randomly add faux crystal sparkle and stardust stickles to add further twinkle to the snow
• Wink of Stella used to add subtle sparkle to Santa's beard and stickles to the "fur" on his coat and hat
