Welcome to my share for this fortnight's Christmas Card Club. Kate up in bonnie Scotland has asked for Santa, Father Christmas cards and this gorgeous stamp instantly came to mind from the Stampin' Up! winter mini called Don't Stop Believin' .
It's a really simple technique using text printed papers although a text background stamp would work too, possibly with second generation ink. I stamped the Santa with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and then used Stampin' Blends to colour in and added the holly from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set. There are also some Christmas facetted gems and lots of Wink of Stella, but not so easy to see in a photo. The sentiment I stamped and fussy cut around it before then adding it to a piece of black card before fussy cutting it out again.
I added a piece of embossed red foil card to bring out the red of Santa's jacket and hat and to make him 'pop' a little more from the text background.
Hoping your Christmas makes are coming along, but if you are adrift and need supplies don't forget to visit my Stampin' Up! Online Shop via any of the item links below.
Thanks for checking in and keep crafting!
