Tom insisted on the little 'gift' from his friend!
The inks I've used for Simon's waves:
While I was at it, I brought out another favorite from Jane's Doodles called St. Nick for my second card for Christmas Kickstart: Santa and friends! It was fun to hang out with my friend Bonnie - she's an incredibly sweet, and talented Elf!
Looks like Rudolph may have had one too many spins
around the rink, Santa! swirls complements of a Cuttlebug embossing folder, and my dad's hammer!
Thanks for stopping in! Hope your week is filled with happiness!

Ha ha, I see the little gift now, very clever. Love the colours too. Great Christmas card, making it into an ice rink with the oval is a brilliant idea and it works so well. Love the expressions on their faces too xx
ReplyDeleteSanta's friends are coming out in force, Michele! This is a fantastic Santa card with Rudolph on skates! Another awesome frame and I love those embossed swirls! Your
ReplyDeleteDad's hammer does the trick very well, my friend! Thanks for sharing again at Christmas Kickstart!
Oops, I missed that Simon was on the same post! A perfect card for your Tom! How fun!
ReplyDeleteThese both made me giggle!
ReplyDeleteOh that Tom!! These are both so dang cute, but that first one is T-riffic!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute cards, Michele! I love how you stamped the waves and your embossed background on your Santa card is fabulous! xx
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I'm sitting here giggling like a fool. Tom is a mischievous guy, for sure. That first card is fantastic. So much fun. So many great details. And then the second card is wonderful for Christmas. Love the detail in the die you chose and the folder. I am always so impressed with your eye for card design, Michele. You always add such fun details.
ReplyDeleteAnother fun card - great way to use Dad's hammer. I love both cards and I love your stamp choice too. Thanks for joining Bonnie and me for Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
ReplyDeleteSMACK! And, once again, I'm down for the count. You're cleverness is just off the chart. LOOOOVE Simon and his little friend. Tom was right about the gift. This whold card makes me smile from ear to ear. As does the shaped Santa card. Don't worry...I don't think Rudolph minds the embossed texture. Just makes him more interesting to the lady reindeer.
ReplyDeleteFun cards! Love those waves! Almost fishing season for you!
ReplyDeleteSuch fun! Theses cards make me smile and I laughed at the gift. Having recently been gifted by seagulls myself. Ha. Ha.
ReplyDeleteI saw the rocking boat card over on IG and absolutely LOVE IT! The wave pattern is awesome and I love all of the angles on this design! Nice job my friend!
ReplyDeleteHugs - Rachelle : )
There is always so much joy in your cards Michele, I can't help but smile watching those waves rolling into his boat, LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThese are both so fun and cute, Michele ... love the addition of Tom's gift to your first blue hued scene! Santa and Rudolph are accomplished skaters ... just look at the acrobatic swirls they created on the ice! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteJust love the oval shaped card, Michele - Santa and Rudolph are so cute with the swirls behind!! Congrats on being a Top Pick at Christmas Kickstart!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card! I'm not sure how I missed it the first time, but thanks to Top Pick at CKS #50! I too LOVE that Rudolph is draggin' the sentiment
