Kneeling Santa

Hello and welcome.  Sharing today a last minute Christmas card I've made for a few challenges using the retired Reason For The Season, although you can still get just the Santa image here from Our Daily Bread Designs.  I've had this set for years and have never used it until now.  Can you say BIG mistake??

After stamping my image in memento black and coloring using copic markers, I stippled some Tim Holtz scattered straw and old paper distress inks to "age" it a bit before layering and adding brushed gold mini brads.  I decided to do the same for the card front saying.  I then repeatedly stamped another saying from the set in memento rhubarb stalk ink to create my background before stippling Stampin Up real red ink around the edges.  The only additional embellishments used is a small red bow, gold cord, and some Making Memories paper poinsettias from my stash.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

Pammies Inky Pinkies #1850 - Anything Goes
Not Just Cards December 2018 - Anything Goes
Winter Wonderland End Of Year - Anything Goes
Outlawz Sunday Songs and Rhymes SAR12162018 - Away In A Manger
Outlawz Festive Friday FF122118 - Christmas

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day!!!!
