Christmas Cards all Year Round

This month at Christmas Cards all Year Round the challenge is all about Santa. 

I had these St Nick images from one of those scrapbooker calendar in a box by Accord Publishing. See HERE for an example. I think these Santa's and coordinating papers are from 2010.

This first one I used a white Spellbinders die cut behind Santa, background paper by K and Co (green) and Creative Memories (red strip), stamp by Hero Arts that I heat embossed using ink from Versa Mark and embossing powder by Stampendous.

 For the next two, back ground paper as above by K and Co and the greeting by Hero Arts.

 I placed a Spellbinders die cut behind the Santa image and used one for my Hero Arts sentiment. Brads are by American Crafts and ink is by Ranger and Stampin Up.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.

Noel chalk card

For this fun Christmas card I used patterned paper by DCWV, cardstock by Recollections, letter stickers by Current, brads by Making Memories, stamp, embossing powder, powdered chalk and paint by 

Stamp N Plus.

I used a mixture of chalk and paint together to paint in my heat embossed stamped image. It's one of my favorite techniques. 

Thanks for looking
