WT459 Postal St. Nick

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 For today's WT challenge to Wrap it Up.
Image stamped on white card, coloured with pencils and then sponged with distress inks.
The base is white card stamped with the Snowflake background in Versamark, embossed with clear EP and sponged with blue inks and a hint of walnut stain along the edges. I added a suitable sentiment in the top corner, embossing it, and from my wrapping paper all the way from Australia, a Santa postage stamp. It was fiddly cutting round it, but the scarlet background was too strong to let it stay. To fill the gap between the wrapping-paper postage and the sentiment I found a green flourish in my box, and added that.
