Today's challenge is awesome. I chose to do a Santa card. I was browsing our local hobby lobby store, and spotted this Santa stamp. Now I don't need another Christmas stamp,but this stamp is whatI think about Christmas. The fun and magic of Santa, but to remember why we are celebrating this wonderful holiday. When i saw the star representing the birth of Jesus I had to have it. It didn't hurt that it was 50% off. This card has more sparkle to it than the pic shows. I stamped the image and colored with copics. I then added glitter, stickles and textured snow paint to Santa's hat. I embossed back with a snow folder. Used an edge punch on bottom. Ran ribbon through and added bow. Stamped sentiment. tfl

Your 50% off stamp is wonderful - I love it! It reminds me of Christmas as a little girl - we would go to Mass on Christmas Eve and when we got home - Santa had been there. I love your stamp and your card!
