As the big day quickly approaches, I find I can't stop making more cards for Christmas. I guess that is a good thing as I need some more for giving and sending.
Today's card is a super simple one inspired by this cute little Santa from Birdie Brown. It is a digi that I got last year when she was selling on Etsy. It is no longer available as she is designing for MFT and they now have a set with this Santa in it. Check it out...super cute!
So, Santa was printed, coloured with Copics and cut out. I mounted him onto some Christmas paper with the cutest font that I have hoarded in my stash for years. I then did some random embossing on white cardstock, stamped the sentiment from Kaiser and added it over the Santa with pop dots. The finishing touch was to add a sparkly pom-pom to the top of his hat.
Adding my card to these challenges:
