This challenge is great, because it means I get to make Christmas cards throughout the year and that means a head start on them. I also enjoy the mood boards as inspiration. My card is made up of some repurposed bits from other cards as well as uses my new stamp and die set from StampinUp. The background is obviously a snowflake EF and I attached the sparkly snow base cut from a store bought card. Then using a scrap piece of green card I stamped and cut out the larger trees. The small pointy trees were die cut from another store bought card that had a ton of sparkle on it. I wanted the sparkle and a bit of the design and it worked great. Santa is hand drawn using a Pinterest – how to draw a Santa instruction sheet. Then I coloured, fussy cut and popped him up on the front. To get clean edges I went around the cut marks with a black pen. I added some sparkle to his beard, hat and mustache using a Sakura pen. I’m no good at drawing but after a few tries I got this one right.
Cute Santa! You did a great job on drawing him yourself. Wonderful background for the Santa. Nice card.
