Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a wonderful photo of Santa and his reindeer on a sleigh with gifts!
FESTIVE FRIENDS
I really wanted a more realistic looking Santa for this challenge but sadly I didn’t have any current ones. Festive Friends to the rescue!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1//4 x 11 Real Red cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was embossed with the Dotted Circles Embossing Folder (the focal point in the upper left corner).
- A 2 x 4 piece of Christmas Tags & More Designer Paper was added across the front with a 1/4 x 4 strip of Real Red cardstock on the top towards the bottom.
- The large 2-7/8″ Circle was cut from Pool Party cardstock and added inside the Dotted Circles with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The Santa was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Real Red, Basic Black, Ivory and Light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends. It was cut with the Festive Friends Die and added to the circle towards the left side.
- Three of the die-cut packages from the Christmas Tags & More DSP were added next to Santa on the right with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Festive Friends Stamp Set was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Crumb Cake cardstock and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals slightly under the larger circle.
- A trio of red Traditional Sparkling Sequins were added in the background.
I really like how the embossing highlights the Santa image! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
