It's time for another Rudolph Day card using a magazine cover gift (which is my theme this year). This card uses a Hot off the Press stamp set that was a cover gift about ten years ago and is still one of my favourite Christmas stamps. The lilac card was also a cover gift - it was the back of a card in a cross stitch kit.
I cut a piece of white card slightly smaller than the card blank and die cut a rectangle from the centre. I placed the lilac card into my MISTI and laid the frame over the top so I could place the reindeer and sentiment stamps in the centre. I removed the frame and stamped the images a couple of times to get a good depth of colour. I layered the paper behind the frame and attached it to the card.

To make this card I used:
5.5" x 4.25" white matt card blank
Hot off the Press 'Reindeer & Sentiment' stamps
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Snippets of lilac card and white matt card
