This week's challenge for the Twisted Sisters was to make a Christmas card with our favorite Santa stamp. I chose this Flourish, I Believe-Santa. Wanted to make him vintage and flat. Yep, he is flat broke, he has had to spend a lot of money getting supplies for his work shop so he can deliver prezzies to all the little boys and girls around the globe.
Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas.

This is a fantastic Santa - even if he is FLAT (broke) Love that old fashioned look of Him, reminds me of when I was a kid!
This is absolutely perfect on that holly BG paper, with the best nestie for framing him out - an excellent job, as always!!
HO,HO, HO yourself, and a merry CHRISTmas to you too!
