Thanks to Stampinfrog, I was able to locate this Santa stamp that I have wanted for a long time. It arrived today, thanks to the US postal service that delivers even in the mist of a hurricane warning. We've all been curfewed to our houses so I figure what better way to spend my extra time than to stamp. Even if at some point it might be by candlelight. I'm a survivor of Hurricane Carla from the 60's and I remember occupying my time playing Mr. Potato Head all night by candlelight. So, hey stamping is even better!!!

I love the colors of this. It's very sweet, and the Santa image is perfect.
And I agree, stamping is way better than Mr. Potato Head!! For some reason, when the shutters go up, and the house feels like a cave, I get an urge to bake.

I'm with you. I have loved seeing cards with this image and I came across this recently at Michael's and bought it. So, now, admiring what you've done, I can CASE Santa for Featured Stamper. Love the alternative colors you've used and the way you've colored Santa. This is awesome, Liz.
