Santa Claus is Coming to Town!!

by | Dec 19, 2014 | Uncategorized | 11 comments

Can you believe the big guy will be here in just a few days?  Where did December go?
I have a couple more Christmas images that I colored up to share in the next couple days – in between baking cookies, wrapping presents, and oh yeah, the full time job!

I used one of my favorite plaid ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon on this fun card.  I made a double-loop, double-layer bow on my Bow-it-All V2.0 using the Red/Green Christmas Plaid Ribbon.  The plaid across the bottom of the card is layered over some 7/8″ Ruby Red Satin.
Want to see how I created this bow?  Visit my Bow-it-All Tutorials on YouTube HERE.

The adorable Santa image is a digital stamp from Whimsie Doodles.  I’ve added a little glitter to Santa’s hat and coat trim to jazz him up a bit.  Still working on that Copic shading….

I’m entering my card in the following challenges:
