Christmas with the Christies.

I can't believe Christmas is behind us and we are racing towards a whole new year full of exciting things.
 
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas, we had a very relaxed and peaceful one, just how we like it. 
 
And as is tradition we made our cards to each other. I am ashamed to say hubby is a much better crafter than I am *hangs head*.
 
I used a Karber Digi for hubbys card and opted for Rudolph, as he supports Aberdeen FC and the fans are known as "Rudolphs". Probably because it is soooo cold up there, and you end up with a red nose lololol.  I coloured him(Rudolph not hubby) with Flexmarkers and Promarkers, and used Fluffy Stuff on his hat. I then popped him onto some delicious papers from the Santa's Workshop Christmas Kit from Sarah Hurley. I just love this kit and will be using it throughout the year as it is so versatile, and has more than just Christmas papers in it.  I embellished it with tiny snowflakes in white pearlescent card, popped some wee gems on them and added the word "husband" which I die cut from the Vintage Market die from Tim Holtz, I also distressed this using Black Soot DI.

 
 

Here is hubbys card to me, I love it. I will let you be the judge of which one is best ;-)
 
 
I may start encouraging him to make more cards.
 
I would like to enter my card(the top one) into the following challenges;
Di Digi Designs - Christmas
Craft Us Crazy - Merry Christmas
Hanna and Friends - Christmas
