Happy Monday, peeps! Hope you had a good weekend! I am squeaking in my card by the skin of my teeth; it's for the FMS sketch as well as the Jingle Belles challenge of Santa's Hat!
I pulled out a retired SU Santa's Hat builder punch and went to work:
I punched the hat from red and white glimmer paper, then mounted it on a Stylish Shapes circle diecut and added a couple more circles of Real Red and Soft Succulent. My horizontal piece was Evening Evergreen and the sentiment is from Impression Obsession. Everything was mounted on a Tim Holtz Deer Knit embossed panel and I added some snowflake sequins for fun:
I found these inexpensive stamps at Goodwill a while back and they actually stamp pretty well! I used this one for the inside:

This is such a great Christmas card, LeAnne. I love the glitter but yet the CAS. Congrats to your team win! That's an accomplishment for all games.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute Christmas card, LeAnne! Love that sweet Santa Hat and that beautifully embossed background layer! I have slacked on making Christmas cards this year and I have even been inspired by watching Hallmark Channels Christmas in July 24/7. Glad to know I am not the only one who finds Stampin Up! stamps at Goodwill! I'm always on the hunt for them there! LOL Congrats to the softball team on their championship!! WooHoo! It was a a HOT day for that!
