A Letter to Santa

I have another Christmas card today using a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp that I did not get a chance to use during the holiday season.  This week's Merry Monday (MM#95) challenge to include an animal on a project provided the perfect excuse to ink it up.

After stamping A Letter to Santa onto Copics X-Press It cardstock, I cut out the image with Spellbinders Nestabilities and then colored with Copics. I paired the image up with patterned papers from one of my very favorite Christmas pads, Carta Bella Merry and Bright that is at least two years old now. I stamped the sentiment from the set onto patterned paper and cut into a flag shape.


Products: Kraftin' Kimmie stamps, Carta Bella dp, PTI buttons, Martha Stewart paper doily, Spellbinders Nestabilities, Copic Markers
Copics: Animals/Ribbon-E50, E51, E53, W00, E81, R20, E41, E42, E44, E49, R22, R24, R27, YG11, YG13, YG17; Mailbox-C00, C1, C3; Snow-W00, E81; Shadows-BG0000, BG000, BG10

I love this stamp so you can expect to see it repeated at some point. Thanks for stopping by.
