Button Bits Santa

 

I'm back today with another card I made for the 

Festive Friday Blog: Final Challenge, using 

my favourite colour scheme of red, green and 

gold and the sweet Santa from Holiday Button Bits. 

Pure Poppy card base (4 1/4" square) was used to make this 

fun Christmas card - perfect for one of my little grand nieces.

* Three papers (Bo Bunny Mistletoe Collection) were used on the card front. 
* Santa - coloured with copic markers; Pure Poppy felt button was added.  Black embroidery floss accents the "tummy".
* Frame - made by cutting several layers of chipboard into a rectangular shape and covering it with one of the patterned papers.  Label Basics Angled Die was used to cut the opening. 
* Sentiment (AmyR Stamps) was stamped with New Leaf and Pure Poppy inks, onto a hand cut notched banner. A white bow and a tiny gold 'jingle' bell accents the sentiment panel.

Santa's head and beard were stamped, fussy cut, then 

added to the original image with a dimensional foam dot. 

A sentiment (Winter Sentiments - AmyR Stamps) was stamped with 

Pure Poppy ink on the inside of the card. The "North Pole" seal 

(Neat & Tangled) was embossed with gold embossing powder.
