Back on the wagon with Christmas Cards again!
I was going to colour this Santa for the Merry Monday Challenge, but the week escaped me and I decided to colour it and use it for this week's Merry Monday Chalkboard Challenge #191!
I went old school with my chalkboard and did it on some Papertrey Ink Pinfeather cardstock because the chalkboard I remember from school were green. Do you remember that? I started by white embossing my sentiment and then I stamped the stars, snowflakes and sponged the edges with white ink. I used the sketch from this week's MFT Stamps Wednesday Sketch Challenge #267.
Love this, Tracey! That is one of my favorite sets and seeing Santa on a blackboard panel is a fabulous design!
ReplyDeleteLove love your card. The Santa is so stinkin' cute. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute card, Tracey! I love how the red and white on your Santa pops against the blackboard, and your choice of DSP on the background works perfectly! So adorable!
