Today’s card feature the third Santa from Traditions Of St, Nick Designer Paper, an Online Exclusive. He doesn’t have a Saint Nicholas Die for cutting, like the other two, but was fairly easy to fussy cut, and well worth it. Don’t you think?

St. Nick
For his background, I stamped a leaf and berry branch from the Joy Of Noel Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink on Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″. I stamped it twice to form a 3/4 circle, and colored it with Stampin’ Blends in three colors: Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler.

Next, I glued a strip (4″ X 1″) of Traditions Of St. Nick DSP across the middle of the card front. This damask patterned paper is so pretty, and adds to the vintage feel.
“Merry Christmas” is from the Ringed With Nature Stamp Set, stamped in Cherry Cobbler Ink. After stamping, I glued the layer to a Mossy Meadow card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, and attached St. Nick with Dimensionals.

I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
