Now...on to the card! This adorable image is from the Artful Stamper, called Santa Claus .

Honestly, this card was so, so easy to make! I stamped it on watercolor paper using Onyx Black Versafine ink, then embossed with JudiKins Detail Clear embossing powder. I colored with Tombow (water based markers), adding a little gray shading to his beard.

I used White Liquid Applique on his cap, and sprinkled it with Crystal Ultrafine Glitter by Art Institute Glitter. Then I heat set from the underneath to make it puff a little. I added a thin layer of JudiKins Diamond Glaze to his glasses to give them a glass look.

The sentiment is Ho Border also from The Artful Stamper. I stamped it on acetate using StazOn ink, then placed it over the designer paper piece and attached it with Red Mini Brads .

The red and green cardstock is from Prism Papers . The designer paper is from One Heart One Mind. And it totally made this card super easy.

I had a fun day yesterday. I met a friend for lunch, then we went to see The Women . It was a GREAT movie....but you need to see it with a girlfriend because it is definitely a chick flick!

The wedding was very nice, but I have to admit that I only stayed a respectable amount of time. I was anxious to get home to my stamps! LOL! I must tell you a little secret....I actually bought a card to go with my wedding gift! I know...My bad!

If this post looks a little different in your browser, it's because I'm writing it in Draft Blogger to test scheduling posts for a later date. I haven't done this before, and I have no idea how it works! I do know that it isn't letting me manipulate things as I usually do! Grrrrrr!

I hope you all had a great weekend. Thanks for stopping by! I will be back soon with something new.
