Santa and his Sleigh

Hello my crafting friends, hope this finds you all safe and well? Thank you for visiting me today I do love reading all your comments.

Now I shall be off here for a while as I have a lot to finish for Sheena and I am going away at the weekend so I will be back before long and I hope you will be too!



Today's Christmas card is another fairly simple one to do, I started by placing some Music Paper on the base card, distressing the edges before sticking it down, then out of a very old paper pad I found some paper with a snowy tree scene over it so I cut out a small piece, distressed the edges and placed this at an angle in the middle of my card.

I printed a picture from the Victorian Christmas CD, this was of an old time father Christmas but in sepia tone so I placed this in the top right corner, in the top left corner I added some pine spruce with pine cones and I tied some jingle bells with red ribbon in a bow to place on top.

In the Range I found a little bag of wooden reindeer so I used these on the card to act as if they were flying through the forest. Santas sleigh was die cut using Red Miri card.

To finish the card I added a little Deco Art snow writer on the sleigh, around the forest paper and on the pine spruce.

Items Used:

Tattered Lace Music Paper ( free with magazine)
12X12 Paper Pad (night forest scene)
Cottage Citz Elegant Sleigh
Red Miri Card
Joanna Sheen Victorian Christmas CD Rom
Sheena Douglass Perfect partners Little Bit Festive Pine Cones/Branches

Deco Art Snow Writer
