Wishing You Everything on Your List (Signs of Santa)

3.9K

Hi everyone, I was a little late getting my Christmas cards made this year.  Fortunately, they are now all out with Australia Post so I think it is time to share my design.  Hopefully, I won’t spoil the surprise for too many people.   One of the styles of cardmaking I love is that of making scene cards.  I haven’t done them for a while but when I saw the Signs of Santa Stamp Set I knew this would be my choice!    There are so many different permutations and combinations I could have gone with but in the end, I decided Santa, Mrs Cluas and the signpost would be my choice.  Those little elves are way too cute though so I will have to use them on another project.

I wanted to create a simple card where the images just popped.  The white of the background seemed a little too stark for me.  I used snow mound die from the Farmhouse Framelits die to create a template which I then used to sponge Pacific Point ink to create a soft background.  When we sponge we generally try and aim for it to be without any streaks.  I didn’t worry too much if it happened – it kind of added to the look of the card.

All of the images were coloured with our fabulous Stampin’ Blends and then I finished it off with a little Wink of Stella in a few places.

Here’s the card…

Aren’t they the cutest images?  I love them!  Both the of the sets I used to create this card have now been discontinued and will only be available while stocks last or until January 2 2019.  I’m sorry to see them go.  I particularly love the fence and the slope in the Farmhouse Framelits Die set.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day!
