Happy Thursday! It's Colleen here with you again, sharing some Topflight Stamps goodness! I am still trying to build my stash of Christmas cards for this year. I used a versatile stamp set for some 'wow' factor: Creative Expressions Tis The Season. This set has several beautiful images as well as sentiments. I chose the Santa face to prominently display on my card. Versafine Onyx Black Ink gave good coverage for all of the fine details on his face, beard and hat. I fussy-cut the image and lightly distressed the edges with a brown ink, adding a touch of green for the holly leaves and one small red rhinestone as a holly berry. In my stash, I found a red glitter paper to place behind Santa; so festive!
I stamped a sentiment from Creative Expressions Joyful Wishes on a little banner, and then mounted it, and Santa, on some burlap. Love the unexpected pairing of glitzy with rustic!
The texture on this is fantastic and so are your fussy cutting skills! Terrific card, Colleen!
