Sweet Sunday......Santa

Happy Sunday Peeps!!!

It is Sweet Sunday Sketch Day!!

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:

Sweet Sunday......Making a List

Happy Sunday Peeps!!!

It is Sweet Sunday Sketch Day!!

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

I decided to make a Christmas card using this cute new Santa set from Stampin Up called  Santa's List.

The DSP is from the Season of Style pack and the colors are awesome. The base of the card is Cherry Cobbler and then the next layer is Whisper White and then the first layer of DSP. 

The next two layers of DSP are matted with Old Olive and more Cherry Cobbler card stock.

I added some Old Olive Satin ribbon to the side and three silver mini brads for my embellishments.

The main image is stamped with black onto some Whisper White card stock, I colored a hint of color onto his cheeks and added some stickles to his fur, but that really doesn't show in the pics.

The sentiment is stamped onto some old olive card stock and added at the bottom of the main panel.

Be sure and check out what the rest of the girls did with this sketch:

Santa's List

I love this new Santa image from Stampin Up in the Holiday Mini. 

It was on my first order from the catalog.

I was so inspired by a card I saw by my sweet blogging friend and fellow Sweet Sunday Stamper Jodi Collins, see here card HERE

The base of my card is Early Espresso card stock and then a layer of  white and the DSP here is from the new Season of Style pack, love this Holiday pack!

I stamped the Santa image using Early Espresso ink onto Whisper White Card stock and used my circle and scallop circle nesties to cut it out.

I used my Spellbinders Layered Poinsettia Die to make the pretty Poinsettia on here using some Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive card stock, I sponged the edges with the coordinating ink. and added a gold sticky pearl to the center. The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set.
