Lee's mini VSN challenge is Grinchy Colors. I've got the Red, Green and White, and I threw in some Gold. It's not a neutral, but the Grinch's change was to a heart of gold! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!! And yet another unused stamp for Wendy's Love Your Stamps challenge.
My bg is from Polly's MIX challenge, Texting. I used both printed and stamped texts for the bg and applied gesso when I was done. I die cut the holly, ran a gold paint pen around the edges of the holly and the panel. Sprayed the green card base with gold shimmer spray and adhered the panel. Stamped, colored and fussy cut Santa, picked him up at the thrift store a few months ago. Added gold gel pen and Nuvo Crystal Glaze for his glasses. Popped him up with dimensional tape. Added some sequins to finish. TFL

Your colouring on Santa is wonderful! I really thought he was a sticker! Again, what a great background. You really are inspiring me to give that collage/texty background a try. Lovely card!
