The Rudolph Days challenge has caught me out yet again this month so it was a quick scramble to make a Christmas card before the end of month deadline. I've chosen this time to make an eclipse style card using one of the slatted dies and an image from a pad of seasonal images which I've had for some years and is most likely now discontinued. I selected two identical images and used one of the slatted dies to cut into the centre of one of them before layering them together for the effect. A piece of toning card was used to cut a larger rectangle to back this and then it was adhered onto a 7" x 5" card blank. A simple greeting was die cut and added and that's it - job done and my Rudolph Days card for June completed in no time.

Greeting - dies from Britannia
Slatted dies - from Craft Addiction UK (squares)
Toning Card - Cherry Cobbler by Stampin' Up
That's very sweet indeed with all the little animals. Need to get my act together here as well as short month this time.
