This is for this weeks Featured Stamper, Claudine/Seven Cats. I chose this card to case Santa by sevencats at Splitcoaststampers
There were so many pretty cards to pick but I settled on this one because I am beginning to concentrate on Christmas cards. I changed paper, ef, image and ribbon but I kept her idea of her image on the two nesties and made it a Santa card like her. I ran my first layer through the cb using a snowflake ef. Then I used the ribbon punch from SU and punched that out in Real Red which is the same color as my card base. I stamped my image in Momento and colored it with Copics which was easy because of all the white. I cut the image out using circle nesties then cut and matted a scalloped nestie in the Real Red for my mat. I popped my image up and used Diamond Stickles on it which the camera does not pick up. I bought this last year from the SU mini. I didn't use it because I was done with all my cards and tags when I bought it. I wasn't going to buy this set but I knew I would be sorry if I didn't. This Santa is like the Santas from when I was a child. I was going to say vintage Santa but didn't want to say I was vintage!!!

Hey...wait a minute...what's wrong with being "Vintage"? Lol- Sylvia you are too much! Love your "Jolly old Elf" and that adorable wink! So cute.
