Christmas With Rupert Clause



Just like last week, I am still thinking Christmas. Here is yet another Christmas card idea, for my Xmas cards this year. I like to try several different ones, then decide which I like the best. The problem is, I like them all. I might end up having to just make a variety.

This image is a recent new release, from Stamping Dragon Designs, called Rupert Clause. He is colored with Promarkers, and I used a clearstar gelly roll pen to add glitter and sparkle to him. You can take Rupert in Santa form (as well as many others) home with you,for your very own, in the store, here.

I used the sketch TM#51 from Tuesday Morning Sketches, and the sketch from Critter Challenge, for the card layout. The papers are all from my stash. I used the branch punch by Martha Stewart, to punch out the Greenery, then used skittles dyed with Cranberry Alcohol ink, as the berries. The skittles and branches give the card a nice 3D card. I love cards with dimension!

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
