Christmas is Coming - Santa Card

I know its only September but Christmas will soon be here.



This card was created using the Cottage Cutz die - Santa Peeker and the Spellbinder Shapeabilities - Ribbon banners.

The Santa was cut using the die, using white, red, pink and green cardstock. The beard, hat and cuffs were all shadowed at edges using Memento Ink pad - London fog. The pieces were fixed together using double sided tape and 1mm 3d foam pads. The Happy Christmas message was printed and then cut using one of the banner ribbons and cut again in re cardstock to create a shadow.

Tartan patterned paper was fixed to lower edge of light brown patterned card stock card and red ribbon was fixed across at the join, this was all matted onto red card and fixed to base card.

The Santa and banner was fixed to white cardstock and mounted on to red card edged using a stamped cutter.

    1. The Die is from a Company called Cottage Cutz - Santa Peeker. I purchased mine from the following website Joanne Sheen, http://www.joannasheen.com/craft-supplies/cutting-dies/cottage-cutz-dies/cottage-cutz-die-santa-peeker-cc4x4431/
      Some parts are small to stick together but I think worth the time when you get the end result. Glad you like it
