WELCOME TO THE NORTH POLE


Hello fellow bloggers!  I can't believe that I am actually on post # 3 for today! That is a record for me! Go me!  The post is for the Just Christmas and Birthday Cards Challenge.  It is an easy peasy sketch and I had no problem with deciding what I wanted to do for it.  The hard part was picking the one digital stamp I wanted to use!  It is really difficult when you have 10 colored up already!  Anyhoo, I hope you enjoy it and please feel free to leave me a comment, I love to here from you all.
Card Recipe:
Background paper is Provo Craft paper passport collage.  The star was cut at 3" using Christmas Noel cartridge and stickled in silver.  Santa is a digital from coloring-book.info. His beard has been flocked in cotton ball white.  His belt buckle was stickled in silver also.  I colored him using Sharpie ultra fine point markers.  Highlighting was done with Milky Lunar gel roller pen.  The sign was cut with Christmas Noel cartridge at 4".  The white mat is regular cardstock cut on blackout at 4".  The scroll work was stickled in silver and sprigged (is that a word)? with Martha Stewart branch punch using heritage green and basic green cardstock.  Poinsetta is a sticker from Sandylion Essentials.  The journaling was computer generated.  Lastly, the ribbon at the bottom is a strip of you guessed it, Provo Craft paper passport collage paper.
