CARD
Christmas is right around the corner so if you haven't started on your cards, you can start soon and get a good start! Today's hop will have lots of holiday inspiration for sure!
Here is my clean and simple Santa card...
To create this card, I started with a striped stamped background on a white card base. Next, I built the Santa face. I love these dies because although there are several small pieces, they are so easy to put together. I die cut each piece in white cardstock and then simply colored his hat, face, eyes and nose with Copics. Then I was able to put him together quickly! So simple!
Next, I used one of the Classic Rectangle Nestabilities Dies to create the back panel for the Santa. I have had these dies for years and I still love them like I did when I got them. They make the most finished looking panels for your card fronts. I love the embossed edge!
I popped the rectangle up on fun foam after stamping "believe" in the bottom corner. Last, I used my big ole roll of foam tape and added Santa!
I love the clean, bright white look of this card, with the pops of red! Keep scrolling to learn about the giveaway and check out all the stops on the hop!
