Hop to it Santa!

Good Morning all!
It's the last week of the month so that means it's 
New Release Blog Hop time at Dude Time Doodles!
Each of the DT members will showcase one of the new images along the hop!
I promise you you won't be disappointed!
If you arrived here from the lovely & very talented Michelle then you're on 
the right track if not, don't worry, it's a circle hop &
you can jump in at any point!
If you need to see the order of the hop, pop on over to the 
Dude Time Doodles Challenge Blog & take it from there!
Here's my card!


The image I have used is called
Welder Wenceslas!
All of the new releases are now available at the store
Welder Wenceslas is just perfect for my brother in law who does a bit of welding!
Now if you're anxious to get on with the hop, I'll tell you where to go next in a 
second but can I just remind you that there will be a 
mystery host/hostess along the way so don't forget to leave 
a comment for each of the Dudettes & Dude along the way for the chance 
to win one of the fabby images!
Oh & if you haven't already, make sure you leave a little bit of love for CG
our latest Dudette! It's her first hop on the team!!
Here's a closer look at Welder Wenceslas!


To get on with the hop. jump on over to visit the wonderful Ruth
 who I promise has something awesome for you to see! 
If you want to know a bit more about my card then read on!
I made an easel card using the sketch from CraftyAnn's
I used the sketch on both the front & the base!
I coloured my image with Promarkers.
The papers have been in my stash for ever & although not specifically 
Christmas papers, I think they do the job just fine!


The sentiment was computer generated using the font Santa's Sleigh
which you can download free from here


The ribbon is from Lidl Christmas Collection. 
I find some of their crafting goodies to be fab value & good quality!
I also added some Card Candi!
Thanks for stopping by & don't forget to leave some comments along the way!
