I used to own this SU! retired stamp set and gave it away some time ago, but I had a couple stamped images left and made this card with one of them. I matted it with dark brown cardstock after some traditional Christmas coloring, and then used some green glitter cardstock behind the brown. The plaid paper needed a touch of red, so I added a red embossed panel done with a retired SU! snowburst ef and dotted it with Nuvo glitter drops. The sentiment is by recollections and I added a snippet of a scalloped border die beneath it, dotting with some red Nuvo drops.
I'll be sharing this with the October Rudolph Days challenge that runs from the 25th to the end of the month and all you need to do is make a Christmas card.
Christmas is just around the corner now, so I hope you've been playing along all year and have a nice stash of Christmas cards ready to go :)
Thanks for stopping by and have a great Thursday!

Oh Carol, what a fun card this is. I love that you used an image you kept and colored it so cute. I like the texture of the embossing folder and that gorgeous plaid paper. The glitter paper and Nuvo drops add a touch of shine.
That's a fun image and I think their cold noses is a great touch of humour Carol. That bright red looks great mixed with the plaid x
This card is SO cute, Carol! My friend has this stamp set and I think I have a few images stamped off, somewhere! Love the images in this set and I especially love how you colored the elves! Great texture added with the embossed panel and the plaid paper steals the show for me! Love this!! TFS and enjoy the sunshine today! Hugs~
Happy RD Carol, that is a very merry card indeed! Xxx

That is such a cute card and I am glad you still had some stamped images so that you could make it and share it with us. They are such a cute crew of elves. I just found a few stamps I thought I had given away that were wood mounted. Now I am not sure if I want to give them to someone or not. They are some of the first ones I bought.
Fabulous looking RD Card. Great to use up something you've kept for a while too!
Hugs, Sarn xxx
I haven't a stash of Christmas cards ready to go... :( I'm always later!
Perhaps in ten years I will be on retirement and then I will arrive to Christmas in time with a big stash of ready cards! :D But it's a long time to wait...
These Elves are just ADORABLE!!! Fabulous colouring and design! Love the embossed strip with the drops and the green glittered mat! on the plaid!! So cute and fun card!!

This is really cute!
This set always makes me giggle, for some reason. What an awesome job you did coloring. Love the little details you gave to the sentiment!
Oooo what a great fun image, it made me giggle and a great layout too, thanks for joining us at Rudolph Days Challenge this month, Luv Sam x
Very fun and very cute too! I think perhaps a few of them have been sampling the Christmas Sherry!
Great card and I like that little scalloped border piece under the sentiment.
