Pear Tree Rudolph Day

  Managed to get some time at my craft table today and rummaged out a Christmas stamp to celebrate the 25th of the month.

The stamp is my Stampendous and I coloured it using a mix of Promarkers and watercolour pencils.

I created a little dimension by decoupaging some of the elements on the design but went for a CAS style.

Off your Rocker!

Made a rocker card for a change.

Die cut a large circle and coloured it using a range of Distress Oxides through a stencil

Add some background stamping and some washi tape.

The fun dog image is from a Funky Fossil Designs set I am working my way through stamping.

He was coloured using Promarkers and a touch of water colour pencil.

I layered up part of the image for extra dimension.

Rudolph Day 2026

 It’s the first Rudolph Day of 2026 and 

 I am pleased to be a guest designer over at Rudolph Days challenge blog this month.

Here is the card I made using a Woodware stamp.

First I stamped onto Kraft card and then paper pieced some of the images which I coloured using Promarkers and watercolour pencils.

I decided to mount it into a card blank and cut it out to make a cute shaped card.

Please come and join us over at Rudolph Days challenge this month!

Duck for Christmas?

 Made this trio of Christmas tags using a cute little stamp I think was by Crafters Companion it is years old. But was perfect for this tag design idea. 

I used some simple techniques I learned at Lavinia stamps on the weekend.

Coloured using watercolour pencils and used white pigment ink in the background. 

A touch of Posca pen and a little gem for the mistletoe.

Halloween Postcard

 Not sure when I last made a postcard.

But here is one I have made using some autumnal colour Distress Inks in the inky background and went for a Halloween vibe with some Stampotique images which were coloured with Promarkers and watercolour pencil. 

The words are some of my favourite phrases again by the sadly no more Stampotique…sniff!

Added some spooky black netting and stitching as a finishing touch.
