Believe--FMS 152 and Merry Monday #124

September 4, 2014

 I had a little extra time today and was able to make a couple of cards!  I love days like that!  It is still very hot and humid, so I don't want to spend much time outside.  

 Cindy's fantastic sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches was perfect for what I had in mind for my card.  I also realized that I could enter the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge, too!  I haven't entered a card in more than one challenge for months, so I was very excited!  WIN-WIN!  Please stop by both blogs to look at all the Design Team's samples!  Oh my, such gorgeous work!

I absolutely adore this little Santa I used for my card.  He makes me smile! It is my first attempt using the Stampin' Up Blendabilities Markers.  I loved playing with these new markers.   I hope you enjoy my card!  I DO Believe in Santa!  





Please leave a comment and let me know what you think of my card.  I always love to hear from you!

 Email me at:claire6456@aol.com if I can answer any questions for you about my card or Stampin' Up!

 Happy Stampin'!
Claire

    This is a beautiful Santa, Claire! Love the "fur" on his coat and hat and the present he holds! Thanks for sharing him with us at Merry Monday!

    Oh I love how you decorated your Santa, Claire. Used the same set and Santa, and they turned out so different. Your bold red robe and sweet detailing on fur and present is adorable! Love the Christmasy red and green!

    Love the colours on your Santa card - how did you create the fur trim Claire? It adds such a nice touch.
