Hi everyone!

I’m playing along with Martin’s 30 Day Christmas Card Challenge this month.

 

The theme of Day 202’s challenge is ‘ugly sweater’.

Well, it may be difficult to believe but I don’t have any ugly sweaters in my crafty collection! So this was a real struggle to me! So I interpreted the challenge as ‘Christmas jumper’ instead! I pulled out the very old Hero Arts/Sizzix stamp/die combo that I finally got on ebay last year I think. I love the reindeers in their little Christmas jumpers – plus one of them looks like he’s jumping so I’ve got my own little play on words.

I don’t usually do scenes that cover a whole card but I bought this fabulous Sizzix stencil set a few weeks ago – I love how quickly stencilled scenes come together.

The sentiment is by from a very old Hero Arts wood-mounted stamp set. I stamped it from Cloud 9 Silver ink – unfortunately it dried with a rather mottled effect but I felt it went well with the card.

Thanks for stopping by!
