Happy Saturday.
Brrr...it feels chilly and cold here this morning and I am in Christmas card making mod.
This morning I am being inspired by the challenge at Splitcoast from the Illustrations Pinterest Board. Great images to be inspired by!
I began stencilling the bkg. using Peeled Paint and Mowed Lawn Distress inks. Love those inks to stencil with as they just blend so well together. I cut the piece into panels and rounded the corners so I could use them for a more interesting background.
This cute little Santa is a digi that I printed and coloured using Copic markers. I added him to my card front using some pop dots.
Note: He was created by the most talented Birdie Brown and is no longer available as a
digi. You can buy a set from MFT that includes one like this.
Lastly, I stamped the sentiment that is from a set by Penny Black.
