The May Challenge for the Rudolph Days Challenge

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How did we get to the end of May? This weekend coming it will be our daughter's birthday, mine was at the beginning  of the month. I suppose we will have to video call like we did for mine.

Well today the new challenge starts at the Rudolph Days Challenge. I do try not to miss one of the challenges as I do like to keep on top of my Christmas Card making. At the moment I am not making so many cards a lot of my time is now spent doodling with Barbara Gray. This week we will be off on our travels again. I have a feeling it might be a Safari. I have given up saying I can't do that I just give everything a go.


I just love robins on Christmas cards. I couldn't resist the image on an old card. 


This is a Crafter's Companion die. 


I used the Piece by Piece die set that came free with a magazine a while ago to cut the black mat and the puzzle pieces. I like to offset some of the pieces so that it looks more like a puzzle. I always enjoy using this die set.  

Here is another card for my stash of Christmas cards. I really should make some more. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Stay safe and take care.

Fantastic card, Jackie. I was doing well prepping my Christmas cards but I haven't done any for a couple of months now, I must get back to them.

Hope you had a lovely weekend. Wishing you a good week.

Brilliant use of the robin card. I do like the way you have inlaid the jigsaw element. I did enjoy Barbara's lesson today. Once I got started and the bowl in proprotion I found the rest just flowed. Even the feet look like feet!!! Barbara is so good at explaining and showing what to do. Hugs Mrs A.
