A big congrats to Vicki! What a lovely gallery she has! It was hard to pick just one, but I went w/ her Santa Dear. I kept the vintage style Santa and Christmas colors and theme, but I used different images, added dp and used a different layout.
The images are new from North Coast Creations and were colored with copics. Santa was stamped w/ Memento espresso truffle and colored with copics. After die cutting, I left the die in place and sponged just a little of the desert sand ink around the inside edge. One edge on each of the red panels was cut with a Quickutz tiny scallop edge die.The sentiment was stamped on the lower left edge of the 4.25 x 5.50 ivory card using the rhubarb ink. I added a Cheery Lynn holly flourish for a little something extra.
Congrats again, Vicki, enjoy your week! Thanks so much for looking! The details are on my blog: The Write Stuff
