Cathy (CathyMac) provided a great sketch for today's Sketch Challenge, SC622. Using the sketch, I created a card that revolves around the Power Poppy's Glittering Glass Santa Digital Stamp Set that I purchased. Because the image is digital, I resized it six times; one for the main image, and five for the #5 pieces of the sketch. I colored all six images with Copic Markers that closely match the SU Pool Party color, the primary color of the card.
After adhering the ribbon, designer series paper pieces, and main image to the card base, I used four different punches to cut Silver Glimmer Paper to mat the five miniature Santa images. I attached these at different levels using foam tape.

This Santa so reminds me of the ornaments of old. I still have some of my Grandmothers and lovingly put them on the tree. lots of work in resizing but it sure packs a WOW!

How wonderful is this! Bev I love that your reduced the image to fit on each bauble. Everything about this is fabulous - I bet PP sold a lot of this image after this gem hit SCS and Pinterest. xx
