My latest card for Beccy's Place, using the letter "R," is all about Santa sleeping in on Christmas morning. While the rest of us are scrambling out of bed at daybreak to see what he stuffed in the stockings the night before, Santa is doing his best to get a few winks of sleep after his marathon tour of the world on Christmas Eve. What he doesn't need is a Raucus Rooster Rarin' to crow, even if that Rooster is out in the toy barn. lol
I used my ProMarkers to color this image, another of Beccy's quilted critters, all in Ruby Red and Rain forest green. I die cut it with a stitched circle die from Die-namites. I found two scraps of Christmas dp, cut them with the same circle die, and framed the Rooster with them.
The sentiment is computer generated and hand cut, then added to the card front below the image. The two little embellies, a Christmas tree and a Christmas stocking, are mounted on Raised foam dots. I hand tied a Ribbon bow and added it to the top corner.

I started with the sketch from Sketch Saturday
but I turned it a 1/4 turn and used a circle instead of an oval.

Connie, I find your little rooster so cute done in Christmas colors! NEVER would have thought of that. You've taught me a lot about being imaginative with color choices and sentiments. This card is beautiful in every way! hugs, de
What a terrific take on the letter R. You are very imaginative.
That rooster is absolutely adorable! I love the way you colored him all Christmasy! Beautiful and fun Christmas card! I bet Santa isn't too happy about all the noise he is making!
Wonderful make. Thanks for joining us at Jo’s Funday Friday Challenge.

Your raucous rooster is really rad NC, great job! I love the fabulous red tail and comb you gave him, the pop of colour looks great. The sentiment is very appropriate too.
Cheers,
Beccy
