Hello Friends! I'm back with another post for today...whew...it's been a busy Monday! Today Jan's Digital Stamps Challenges have restarted after a summer hiatus and we are excited to share some holiday inspiration for you. Jan has been busy this summer with new sets for Autumn, Winter and Christmas....so let's get started!
My project today features an image from the new set "Santa's Gift". I am so excited for Christmas, it's my favorite holiday and instead of creating Christmas Cards throughout the year, I wait until this time of year to start.
I've colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and the designer papers are from a Carta Bella 6x6 paper pad. The pad features Retro Christmas images and I thought they would match this image; the Santa reminds me of a 1950's Santa Claus.
The sentiment is from the same digital set and I've added Almandine Garnet Rhinestones from Kat Scrappiness to the tree and Crystal Stickles to Santa's Hat and the snow on the tree.
Please stop by Jan's Challenge Blog and join us this month for the Anything Goes Challenge. We would love to have you join in and we're happy to be back!
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
