Sweet Sketch Wednesday #126 **Nice List Santa**



Hello Friends! Man, it feels like forever since I have been able to craft just for fun! Things have been, well,  to say the least ... upside down here at the Bryant house this last month. For now, at least, things seem to be getting back to 'normal'. 

I have missed my paper... I have an addiction to dp, I admit it. And I have had withdrawls to the point where I would go into the craft room to simply visit my dp.

Anyway ... I made this card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday #126. Also, at Paper Smooches, Kim is looking for Christmas cards, so that is why I was inspired to ink up my Paper Smooches' Santa Paws set. I (heart) Paper Smooches' images! Also, although this card may not be so "CAS" I will throw it in the mix at CAS-ual Fridays where they are asking for a design element to go 'over the edge'. I did it creations is calling for Christmas, The Crafty Pad is calling for Paper Piecing ( I paper pieced Santa's suit), and The Ribbon Girl is also calling for Christmas cards.

Card Details:
Stamps: PS Santa Paws
Paper: Ruby Red, Echo Park Seasons Greetings dp,
Cottonball White
Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black, Baja Breeze
Tools/Accessories: PS Doohickies jazzies, misc ribbon,
SU little felt flurries, sponge dauber
