How is your week going? We are in the process of getting ready to go to the wedding in Malta. There is still quite a bit to sort out.
That is what I wrote when I scheduled this post when I was trying to get ahead, Life has flipped. My dad is still in hospital he had a pacemaker fitted yesterday. He now has mobility issues and I know that he can't come out without a care package. He was acting as carer for my mum who we are now supporting. We need a permanent solution at the moment I am not quite sure what that means. This is the reason that I am not around much, I am going to have to make some difficult decisions about my crating.
I have challenged myself to enter all of the Rudolph Days challenges this year. This is my card for the July Challenge that starts today and ends on the last day of the month.
I decided to use the same design that I used for the Barn Owl card from the same A Winter's Day Decoupage Popper pad. This time I wanted to make a larger card. So I turned to my Creative Crafting World paper pads to add the extra detail.
I used the Deckled Rectangle dies by Spellbinders to cut out the kingfisher and the black mat.
This is my go to small Season's Greetings die from Tattered Lace it is such a good size for small spaces.
I think I might make a few more cards like this they are nice and flat for posting.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Happy Crafting
