Rudolf Does Yoga

Hello.  Welcome.  Well, it's summer today in Norway with 28°C in the shade, 35°C in the sun and the greenhouse is like a nuclear accident site........  Best to just stay in there 30 seconds, stretch it to 45 maybe, then out again to cool down!!!  They have said we may have 2 days like this!!!!  Wow.  BBQ, bicycle race and cold drinks rule.  So in the spirit of summer, I decided to make a christmas card!!   Setting a new record!  This is the second one this month!!!  At this rate I will have 13 ready for the big day ROFL.  



Now ain't that the cutest little Rudolf you ever did see??  I used the sketch from CAS-ual Fridays challenge.  I stamped and masked the deer from a NBUS Panduro set and stamped the snowflakes.  I coloured the deer with distress inks and a waterbrush and edged the card with dark blue chalk ink.  Another contender for the yearly christmas card.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Oh how cute is he! Love him and I hope stamping the snowflakes helped to keep you cool. That's some impressive temperatures! Thanks for playing at HLS Christmas Challenge.

This made me laugh at loud, Gail! Your Rudolph has obviously been over-indulging in egg nog, lol!! I hope your weather has cooled down a bit! Hugs, Darnell
