Back for Rudolph Day
I haven't actually started crafting again yet but I do have some cards saved in drafts that I made last year. So here is my offering for this month's Rudolph Day.

Rudolph Day October
I've just noticed that I published last month's Rudolph Day card as October when it should have been September - now corrected!
Roy's troubles certainly weren't over last month as he then went on to have 12 days in hospital - his difficulty walking was apparently caused by cellulitis, but also had to have more blood transfusions as the anaemia kept returning. We're waiting now for the results of another test but at least he's home and enjoying the stair lift!
So as you can guess I have done very little crafting, fortunately I still had these two cards made in advance. Wonder if I was being psychic?
Another two cards made using up some old decoupage. I've mounted them onto an embossed background which has removed the need for a sentiment.

Rudolph Day September
A really quick post from me this month for Rudolph Day.I completely missed last month. Life got really hectic then and hasn't stopped yet. Roy had to have emergency blood and iron transfusions plus lots of investigations to find out why he was so anaemic, then was diagnosed with heart failure because of the anaemia. I've lost count of the number of visits to the hospital and he's not out of the woods yet. He's having difficulty walking anywhere and needs a lot of help, so crfting time is non existent.

Rudolph Day July
I'm still on my "use up old stuff" mission. This month I've used up some very old decoupage. I'm not sure where it came from, but probably Create and Craft.

Rudolph Day - May 2024
I've got two very quick and easy cards for this month's Rudolph Day. I had quite a lot of freebie patterned paper in my stash. These two sheets made two easy cards.

Rudolph Day April
There's nothing much more I can say about these except the mats and sentiments were cut out of a snippet of red mirri card.

March Rudolph Day
This month seems to have flown by. I seem to have been very busy but not sure with what! Certainly very little carmaking or indeed any sort of crafting. Although I suppose I could class painting Roy's very small military miniatures ass crafting!

New Rudolph Day
My card this month is a Woodware stamp coloured with Copics and cut out with a scalloped die which I think is a Crealie one. Image and sentiment both on scraps of white card. I mounted it onto a scrap of dark blue card and embossed the card blank with the Stampin Up falling snow embossing folder.

Snowy
I'm still in Christmas card mode! Two Snowy cards for you today! I do love this cute snowman.
The paper was a freebie from a magazine absolutely ages ago! The second one is also using up some of the peeloffs from my stash. The pile doesn't seem to go down though!

House Mouse For Rudolph Day
I'm just managing to squeeze into the last Rudolph Day challenge by the skin of my teeth. Sadly Maureen has decided to close the blog due to health issues. Thank you Maureen for keeping it going for so long and all the best for your "challenge retirement".
I decided to use a House Mouse stamp that hasn't seen a lot of ink since I bought it.

Snow Family
I'm waaaay behind with blogging my cards but life has got in the way again! After getting back from our cruise I became treasurer of The Fleet Art Society just as they were due to hold their winter exhibition. The hand over took a while as the guy showing me went over everything a number of times! Then the exhibition was on for five days and I had christmas presents to buy, cards to write, cakes to bake!
So here are two snow family cards, which have also used up some of my stash of 6x6 papers,

Father Christmas for Rudolph Day
Well here we are at the penultimate Rudolph day for 2023! Unbelievable!!! I have used a NBUS stamp which came free last year, I think,with a magazine.
It is a Raymond Briggs Father Christmas and quite a large stamp, I coloured him with Promarkers and drew the border round the edge. The paper is out of my stash and was originally in a Simon Says Stamp kit.
