Ho Ho Ho

Hey everybody! It’s busy on my blog this morning with all the new challenges launching on this first day of September! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #52 – Anything Christmas Goes! I created an adorable card with a vintage feel featuring Santa and Rudolph! These stamps and dies are from Prickley Pear Stamps and are so cute I can’t stand it!

I cut a standard A2 side-folding card base from Cougar Smooth White cardstock along with layering panels from two coordinating prints from the Hot Off The Press Joyful Christmas 6×6 double-sided paper pack. I added several strips of Me & My Big Ideas striped skinny washi tape across the seam of the two papers. I stamped the images and sentiment from the Prickley Pear Stamps Santa and Rudolph stamp set on Cougar White cardstock in Memento Rich Cocoa ink, colored Santa and the reindeer with alcohol markers, and cut all of them with the coordinating Santa and Rudolph dies. The finishing touch was adding several red gemstones.

I cut the inside panel from Cougar Smooth White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the Hot Off The Press peach patterned paper and a strip of the MAMBI striped skinny washi tape used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the same Santa and Rudolph stamp set in Memento Rich Cocoa ink and added two stamped and die cut snowflakes.
