I decided to use Naturals White as my base cardstock followed by a layer of Mossy Meadow and then a layer of Whisper White. Before attaching the Whisper White, however, I used my Stars embossing folder to emboss it. For the strips, I used Designer Paper with a Mossy Meadow matte and for the square I did the same.
I coloured Santa's hat and face using my Blendabilities and then mounted him using Dimensionals. I attached the moustache using Dimensionals as well. Then I stamped the "ho! ho! ho!" from Good Greetings onto Whisper White and cut around the sentiment to make it into a word bubble. Before attaching it I sponged around the perimeter using Mossy Meadow ink.
To finish the card, I added some holly to Santa's hat and also some Silver Dazzling Details glitter glue to his beard and moustache.

Perfect choice of fun patterns behind Santa and his stache!! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Kim. I wanted patterns that would suggest Christmas without taking over the card. I think these patterns do just that.
DeleteWhat a fun card!
