Stampin’ Details:
- The base is4-1/4 x 11 Gorgeous Grape cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The Santa and greeting from So Santa are stamped with Memento Black Ink in the lower left corner of a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White.
- I used Highland Heather, Bermuda Bay and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends to color, along with Ivory and Light Crumb Cake Blends. Aren’t his little swim shorts SO cute in those colors!
- A 1″ x 5-1/4″ strip of Gorgeous Grape and 1/4 strip of Bermuda Bay from the Brights Designer Paper was added to the right side of the Whisper White layer.

WOW! What fabulous inspiration for colors. I don’t know when I have ever seen such a beautiful photo of a peacock and you did a dynamite job of using the colors, too. I have never been a red and green Christmas person so I love it when people think outside the box for Christmas cards. Just wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
