I was so pleased when my 'November Rudolph Day' card was chosen as one of the Top 3 in the Rudolph Day Challenge and Helen invited me to join her as Guest Designer on a future challenge.
In recent years I have had a theme for my Rudolph Day cards. In 2017 I used images from a Lili of the Valley Art Pad, in 2018 my cards were 4" x 4", in 2019 all cards had a Christmas tree on them, in 2020 I used wet and/or dry embossing on my cards, in 2021 I used something that had been upcycled, in 2022 I used something that had been a cover gift with a magazine, in 2023 all my cards were cross stitch designs, in 2024 they were all white, green and gold and finally last year they all had at least one die cut on them. My theme this year is stamping and each card will have one main stamped image.
This card uses a lovely Uniko background stamp - it had been out of stock before Christmas but I was able to buy it in Bev's New Year sale, so got myself a bargain!

To make this card I used:
5.5" x 4.25 white matt card blank
Uniko 'Background Blocks Christmas Scramble' stamp
My Favorite Things ' Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Details embossing powder
Copic Ciao - B05, B23, BG15, R17, RV21, V17, Y08, YG67 & YR07
Wink of Stella
Snippet of white matt card
I used black ink to stamp the image onto a snippet of white card and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. I die cut the panel with the largest rectangle die and then used nine different coloured Copics to colour each letter. The panel was then attached to the centre of the card. To finish I applied a Wink of Stella to the letters.
I am entering the following challenges:
ABC Christmas Challenge B for Bright
As You Like It Challenge - Favoiurite Occasion (my favourite occasion for crafting is definitely Christmas as I tend to make far more cards than I need for the occasion)
Crafty Calendar Challenge - Anything New (my new Uniko stamp)
Little Red Wagon - K is for Keep it Simple
Stamping Sensations - Anything Goes
We Love Stamping - Something New (I have used my new Uniko stamp)

That all sounds so organised Kath, if I tried it I'd probably get half way through the year and find myself on a totally different track. Fabulous stamp on this one for your DG spot, many thanks for sharing with us at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges.

Congrats on your GDT. This is a lovely card and a stamp I have often coveted so well done on your bargain. You are so organised to have a theme for Christmas and disciplined I imagine as I have to go with what is in my head!
A beautiful brightly coloured stamped Christmas sentiment

I love how you choose a theme, I wish my brain was that organised 😂 . You probably know I love this stamp, and I love the colours you’ve used xxx
Fantastic festive card and stamp. Great idea to theme your cards like that, for me I just do about 5 designs and batch make so that each year i know my cards are completely different to the year before. Thank you for joining us at We Love Stamping this month. Emmax
I love this card, Kath - very modern and colourful.
Thanks for joining me as a Guest Designer at the Rudolph Days Challenge.
