May Your Days Be Merry & Bright

Hi there my crafty friends!  I started by embossing a piece of white card with the Falling Snow Embossing Folder.  I cut the Pinwheel Snowflake die out of Silver Sparkle card and added it to the top of the card with mounting foam.  I cut the middle die from the set in white and layered it on top.  I stamped the Santa in black from the Santa Stamp set.  I coloured it with alcohol ink markers then cut it out by hand and added it to the middle of the die cut.  I cut a thin strip of red card and added a thinner strip of silver card on top of it, then glued it below the die cut.  I cut the May Your Day Be Merry & Bright sentiment in red and added a black offset shadow to it, then glued it on to a white shadow backing piece.  I added it under the Santa with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 3/4"  in size.

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a fabulous card today, perfect colouring, my hands shake too much now for me to be able to colour like that but I do appreciate all the work that has gone into your Santa.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hug, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue, I love your stamped Santa with his twinkling blue eyes and the way you have coloured his beard makes for a beautiful card.
