5 Months til Christmas Fun Blog Hop and some Candy

Wow thats sounds quite a scary thought that we are only 5 months away from Christmas!!
I can't believe how quick this year is going..........
Hopefully I will have a few Christmas Cards ready for the big day.  Here is a fun little blog hope for you take part in and hopefully you will feel inspired to make some Christmas Cards.

Our little group has grown to 9 this month so hope you enjoy the hopping to visit us all.....I am first on the list this time :)  We all have two cards to share, one using a colouring medium and the other using some sort of die cuts.

This month I have a cute card made with a Humphreys Corner image called Christmas Wishes which is coloured with Polychromo and Prisma pencils blended with Sansador
Paper is Bo Bunny and the sentiment came with the image.
I have added stickles to the image for a bit of snowy sparkle.

The second card is using the Doodlecharms Cricut Cartridge.
I cut the reindeer at 4.5" on the Blackout setting and then cut another 5" image to go behind it.  I have added glossy accents to the nose and used card candi for the eyes.
The Rudolph sentiment is from another Humphreys collection stamp set.
The twine is from Ladybug Crafts Ink.
