Dashing Through The Snow

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a card I made using a retired Stampabilities stamp, Santa Cruising, for a few challenges.  I've been wanting to use this stamp for some time after getting it at Michael's a few months ago on clearance and apparently Santa needed a faster ride this year. 

After stamping my image in memento black onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using Castle Art pencils before stippling my background using a Picket Fence Studio Slimline Cloud Stencil with their blending brushes.  Once all of the stippling was finished, I took a black artist pen and added some faux sewing "stitches" before layering and adding brads.  I then added some ice stickles before adding a red bow and writing SANTA onto the license plate as an afterthought.

Challenges entered:

 

Never Before Used Schtuff #33 - December Use Your NBUS 

Outlawz Festive Friday Dec 24 to Jan 6 - Christmas Theme 

If You Give A Crafter A Cookie #163 - Christmas 

Colour Crazy Craft Wk 50 - Anything Goes 

 

 

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day and a very Merry Christmas and a safe New Year.
