No, it’s not Christmas yet, don’t worry, but I found a couple of year long Christmas card challenges and decided to make a card for them.

There’s Sweet Stampin’ Christmas who want a cute Christmas card and also Holly Jolly who want a clean and simple Christmas card. This one, where I envision Santa Claus looking in his closet for something to wear seems to fit both challenges.

I started by using watercolour paper and making the hanging pole using a ruler and a basic black stampin’ write marker and then stamped the santa image in stazon black. I then used the memento black to colour in the boots using my aquapainter. The suits were watercoloured again using my aquapainter and this time, real red. The sentiment is from the set Good Greetings and stamped in real red also. I then glued the watercolour paper to a base of real red. I’m pleased with this one, it makes me smile. And that’s always a good thing!

See you tomorrow,
