Rudolph

For today's card I used another of Paulette's images from the TLC Winter Club (she will be doing a 5-day St. Patrick's club at the end of this month if you're interested), some old stuff (pearl, PP and ribbon) and some of my new crafting goodies (embossing folder and snowflake die).



I printed the digital image on Neenah solar white cardstock, cut it out with a circle die cut and matted it on a scalloped circle die cut.

Materials used:
Cardstock - Neenah solar white, Papicolor black
Embossing folder - Dot by Darice
PP - graphic design (old brandless paper pad), scalloped die-cut strip (Kaisercraft After Five collection)
Ribbon - EK Success
Circle dies - Lifestyle Crafts
Snowflake - MFT Dynamics, cut from red glitter paper from my stash
Pearl - Joycrafts
