Yesterday I was stuck in the house since my car had a flat....no better excuse but to stay in my crafty space, leave the cleaning for another day, and get busy on those cards!
I used the current sketch at Magnolia Down Under as inspiration for my card using this adorable little Santa Edwin:
I was able to use up some old K & Company Christmas paper from two years ago....love when I can use up those old scraps! Little ol' Santa is colored in Copics and then I added some Star Dust stickles to his hat and trim. There are some Cotton Candy stickles on the snowflake and a touch of Yellow stickles on his little buckle and brass buttons as well. I stamped the Inkadinkado sentiment in Colorbox Cranberry Pigment Ink to match; and finished it off with some American Crafts twine and a button in my stash :)
I hope you all had a wonderful day today!
