Do the elves look forward to the weekends? I’m guessing that everyone at the North Pole is probably ready to shift into near-overtime these days. So perhaps the reindeer are probably in vigorous ‘Fall’ training about now, complete with special diets to enable peak flying efforts. It’s pretty obvious where this merry little reindeer has been playing around … or maybe he was really just helping the elves with the sleigh barn decorations. 😉
For a little bit of added interest around the reindeer, I rubbed Perfect Pearls along the edges of the image piece and red layer. It adds a just a delicate glow of shimmer. Surely this little reindeer didn’t check out Mrs. Claus’ make-up table! His hat is nice & cozy thanks to red & white ‘Sparkly Fluff’.
Here’s to a wonderful weekend for each of you! For even more inspiration, you’ll find plenty to savor at the Sugar Babie’s blogs: Korin Sutherland, Nicole Anderson, Holly Brown, Ann Clack, Jodi Collins, Barb Guinan, and my thanks to you for visiting me today! Take a smile with you along your way today!
