SC724 ~ Jolly Santa

Photo Details

Poster: Redbugdriver

Today's SC was an easy one - thank you Carey. Yesterday I attempted to make a card using this image. I got it all colored & used a new Spectrum glitter pen - it bled the ink as it came out in a big blob! It went into the trash & I left the stamp cave. It worked much better today & I used my Wink of Stella!!!! After die cutting the stitched circle, Santa was stamped & colored with Stampin Blends &
Spectrum Noir pens. There is clear Stella on all of Sant's fur & the snow. He is popped on craft foam. Is it too plain without a sentiment across the top?
Fun sketch Carey.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate.

I don't think it needs a sentiment at top. I left the top plain on my card, too. I've always loved thisSanta image and it reminds me of a fear friend who used this image the last Christmas she was living. I love those big, bold polka dots.

I don't think it needs anything at top - I left the top plain on my card today, too. I've always been fond of this sweet Santa image and I love those big polka dots!

Great Santa image and I love that you left it plain at the top. The large polka dotted paper is perfect!

Definitely not too plain! Santa is so big and bold that he doesn't need anything else.

I didn't use a sentiment on my top portion either. I thought it might change the look of the sketch if I did. I love the white polka dots that look like snowballs.

I think your large polka dots fill the space nicely and no sentiment is missed. Santa says it all in such a joyful manner! Lovely card!
