Sweet Sunday......Santa


Happy Sunday Peeps!!!


Here is the sweet sketch Karen has for us this week:



What a fun sketch, this card didn't turn out anything like I had envisioned when I began, I had originnally planned on using my some of my Season of Style Journaling Tags to make a quick card. I was down to the wire and thought I could get it done quickly. The vision went awry when I started working tho and I ended up stamping this Santa. I love this image from Stampin' Up's Santa's List. I stamped with some Black Stazon and colored him with my aqua painter and ink pads. I stamped a second image and cut out the list and Santa's hand. I curled the bottom of the list around a small wood skewer. I added some dazzling details to his fur for added sparkle.


I did use one element from the Journaling Tags, the small little flag up by Santa's head is cut from one of the tags. The sentiment on here is from the A Banner Christmas. The button/twine element consist of a retired Cherry Cobbler Button and some hemp twine. The base of the card is Cherry Cobbler card stock and then the next layer is Old Olive and then the DSP is from the Season of Style pack.


Now let's see what the rest of the girls did with this fun sketch:


Thanks for stopping by today

As soon as I seen this Vicki I said to myself, Oh No She Didn't; meaning you killed this sketch. Jaw dropping details (like Santa's list). Love the sentiment too! :)
