4 Challenges in 1


I love this Santa image from Hampton Art, he looks like my kind of guy... jolly and well fed!
I coloured him with Derwent Inktense pencils, which I like more and more with each use. I would love to find some in skin tones, however I'm not sure whether they're produced.
The paper is Papermania and the Ho, ho, ho, a Dovecraft stamp. The Christmas trees are from a Stampin Up stamp.
A simple card for 4 challenges.
Stamptacular Sunday Challenge - Christmas in July
Stamp Something - Merry Christmas
Stamp with us - A children's card
Pile it on - At least 3 different embellishments (buttons, peg and ribbons) + combination with other challenges.
It seems that my 1st Blogoversary has crept upon me... I'll post a little candy later!!
