Dear Santa Always Jingle

Hello and welcome.  Today I'm playing along with a few challenges over at Splitcoaststampers, among others, using a couple of my snarky Christmas stamps from Impression Obsession.  

For my first card, I stamped the penguin from  Warm Wishes and colored using prismacolor markers before stippling Tim Holtz fired brick ink around the edges.  The Jingler saying is then stamped also in memento tuxedo black.  After layering, and adding brads, I took a black artist pen and added the faux sewing.  Taking my card, I then dry embossed it using a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and stippled more ink around the edges.  I then took some scrap card stock and die cut my never before used (NBUS) Santa hat before stippling leftover ink around the edges and adding using glue dots.  The small pom on the end is added using micro pop dots.  The finishing touches were a small bow, white gel pen to the eyes and some diamond ice stickles.

My second card today also uses the Warm Wishes penguin.  This time I paired him with some scrap gingham blue designer paper and the Dear Santa saying also from Impression Obsession.  After my stamping and coloring were finished, I stippled some Tim Holtz stormy sky distress ink around the edges before layering and adding some small button brads.  The layered image panel was then added to my card with with the gingham paper.  My final embellishments were a white gel pen to highlight the eyes, white/silver ribbon and some gin and tonic sequins.
