Peaceful Scene for Rudolph Days

Hello crafty friends.

Today I have another Christmas card.
I love how my stash is growing!


I had the pleasure of meeting Maureen last month while I was at the retreat.
She graciously shared some winter die cuts with us.
This is from one of them.  I actually cut the die cut and made two cards. 
I'll share the other one at a later date.

Maureen holds the Rudolph Days Challenge every month from the
25th until the end of the month.
The challenge is Anything Goes as long as it's Christmas.

I've simply added the die cut to a small piece of
Re-inker and Frost paint Smoosh then popped a die cut
piece on top to frame it.

The tiny snippets of yellow in the windows will let me into


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Love those dies and particularly love that ice pond. This is one I've not seen before. They look terrific against your night sky too. This little scene turned out beautifully!

Such a beautiful card Bonnie, I love your peaceful scene, the pond (I'm assuming it's a pond) reminds me of when we would go down to the farm pond and go ice skating in the evening with a fire too, once it was good and frozen. So much fun and such great memories. Hugs, Brenda

What a pretty winter village scene you created, Bonnie! The blue re-inkers and the frost white paint made a gorgeous sky. I love the smooshed effect and shades of blue. The lighted tiny windows are so cute!

Love the smooshing and love that you were able to use that die cut!

The reverse cut window looks so good here.

Thanks for taking part in the June Rudolph Days Challenge.
