Hi,
I hope you are all well ?
Since I last posted, Alan has resigned from his job, as he was headhunted for a new one, so as he put it he resigned at 10.15am and by 10.18am I had given him a list of jobs to do - due to a conflict of interest, he went on gardening leave for 3 months 😂, I did let him have a week off, whilst we went on a fabulous River Cruise from Cologne, going to Koblenz, Strasbourg and Basel.
This month is my last designer spot for this year on the wonderful Rudolph Days Challenge and after this only 1 more Challenge till Christmas - how scary, especially if you haven't made many cards / gift tags, therefore you have from today till 31st October to enter.
Circle Die : Memory Box - 'Poinsettia Circle Frame'
Large Poinsettia : Spellbinders - 'Layered Poinsettia'
All the leaves have been enhanced with white chalk / VersaMagic
Sentiment : First Edition - 'Christmas Sentiment Dies'
Paper : A very old Dovecraft one, but I don't know the name of it
Pearls have been gold embossed
Ribbon is from my stash
Thanks for looking and for any comments you would like to leave, would be most appreciated, Luv Sam x

That sounds like lovely news Sam. It sounds as if your hubby will be glad to start his new job and have a rest lol!! Hope you had a wonderful time on your river cruise - it's good to hear that people are getting out and about and having fun again :) Your card is beautiful with that delicate gold wreath with its pretty poinsettias.

Hi Sam
I so LOVE this card. I think the large poinsettia looks fabulous with the gilded wreath and smaller poinsettias.
The year has sure been speeding past and I think many of us will be making more Christmas cards in the next couple of weeks!
Thanks for doing a fabulous job on the Rudolph DA Challenge design team! It is so good to have you here.
