Merry Christmas
It's time for another Stampavie challenge. This week's challenge is a very simple one: use at least one die cut on your card. I use nestability dies on almost all of my cards so this was super easy! I used the new Santa image, Shhh, for my card. I just love this image! I paired my image with some Figgy Pudding patterned papers from Basic Grey.
I colored the image with copic markers (sorry, I don't have the colors) and sponged ink around the edges. I added white fun flock to the fur on Santa's coat and hat and added some gold stickles to the Christmas tree.
Hop over to the design team blog to see what the rest of the ladies created and to join us in the challenge. Have a great day!

Darling image and great choice of papers! Very pretty poinsettia, too! :)
What a cute image and card! I love the flocking! I'll have to try that sometime instead of Liquid Applique! Beautiful poinsettia too!
This is so adorable, Niki! I saw this Santa image on another blog on WCMD and just fell in love with it. I would be SO intimidated by all that coloring. :) You, on the other hand, are a true pro. Looks gorgeous and I adore the gold Stickles and the flocking. Fabulous detailing. And that paper looks wonderful with Santa.
Niki, this is wonderful. Your coloring is amazing and the designer paper is perfect. I love the flower. Everything is just wonderful. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Blessings,
