love for rudolph



i know christmas is over, but i'm still feeling the holiday spirit! not to mention, i've had this card idea in my head for a few days, so i just had to make it or risk losing the gem forever! ;) ha ha!


i made this card for the most recent paper smooches sparks challenge. check out the inspiration photo one more time:





yeah. love it! i was inspired by christmas and the reindeer! here's my card:




so, i decided santa is sort of the show stopper at christmas, and to make a card with some love for santa's right hand man - rudolph! :)



i paper-pieced the carrots, and wove the basket myself with some kraft cardstock strips, fun! the basket and some of the carrots are popped up for dimension, and it's hard to tell, but the background is the merriest and most wonderful, sparkly turquoise paper! the paper smooches stamps i used were 'alpha dots' and 'vegtasic'.




that's it! hipefully it helps wind down your christmas spirit, merrily! :)

enjoy!
