Taking a Break

 No, it's not me taking a break - Santa and one of his reindeer are having a little rest while they prepare for their busy schedule later this year 😊.  It's the 800th challenge at Allsorts this week, certainly something worth celebrating and there is the straightforward theme of **Anything Goes** along with a bumper selection of prizes.  There's lots of super inspiration from the Design Team and Guest Designer Sarn so why not pop along and take a look.

I started this card by printing a  background from my favourite seasonal CD which I've had for over 15 years, using some pearl paper  I then die cut the two little 'people' , the icicles and the starry frame, colouring was done using Copic alcohol pens.  I dithered about adding a sentiment and finally decided that it wasn't necessary as the scene speaks for itself.

  3. The cute little scene certainly does speak for itself Val. Love that icicle border and how you used the starry frame for Santa and Rudolph to rest on! Utterly brilliant.

    With my GD hat on, I'd like to say thanks for joining in with Allsorts on this celebratory week. xxx

  7. Aren't those little characters so very cute. I am not sure I would have known how to use them but you've found the perfect layout, they look made to go in the frame. Thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge and glad you aren't taking a break!
