Hello all! I'm back with a card for the new Wild Orchid Crafts Challenge. Our theme this time around is "Santa Clause Is Coming To Town". We would like to see Santa on creations. Be sure to make a point to pay attention to our rules to be eligible for the prize. There have been some that have had to be disqualified and we want everyone's creations to count!
I decided to use the super cute image from LOTV called "Father Christmas" and he is colored with distress inks. I love it! The holly papers are Bo Bunny. Some of my Wild Orchid Crafts embellishments are:
Sm. Metal Corners, Olive Trellis Rose, 25mm Deep Red Open Rose, 15mm Cream Open Roses, and Holly Berries.
I stitched all around and used a sketch from Pink {Ink} Sketch Challenge where Ann has given us a wonderful sketch!!!!
I used some White Fun Flock on his beard and Stardust Stickles on the snow.
We would love to see you join our challenge. You have two weeks to get your entries in! There is always a wonderful prize at this challenge.
That's it for me today! I hope you have a good one. Thank you so much for visiting me today!
Hugs, Dena
