I'm cosy and dry in the house, but nearly forgot it was Challenge 6 this week. Our lovely member Lorraine would like to see food and of course its not a stamp I use at all. But came across a set from a magazine that was left behind after Annie took a box load to our local hospice. I was lucky it had a Christmas Pudding stamp among the others so I tried my best to use it on my card, but not my favourite Santa face.(I go for a nice smiley Santa. ) I used my Polychromos pencils to colour it and added some shaved ice to give it a snowy look. Some Holly and Mistletoe and it was done. Hope it passes muster Lorraine. Wishing you all a good week. Hugs Rita xx

Great card for Lorraine's challenge Rita. Like you I prefer a happy smiley Santa too. We have woken to sunshine, albeit very chilly after an overnight frost, but so nice not to have those awful high winds. Keep warm. Hugs Christine x
Lovely card Rita, and to be honest, I don't mind that Santa, love how he holds the pudding. A great card on a theme that I for one would have found hard...
Stay warm and cosy and happy Sunday! xxx

I'm sure he would be willing to share his Christmas pudding with us. It's a perfect image for the theme. It has been cold wet and windy all this weekend though we did manage to get out for a walk each day between the showers. Hugs Mrs A.
Well, considering that was a hard challenge (I would never have come up with something) you definitely pulled it out of the bag Rita, your card is gorgeous. I do like the Santa too! Hugs, Anne xx
