Dear Santa

 Hello All . . .

 
I took a little time to myself today and created a card using the themes of a few challenges that inspired me.  First was the Crafty Gals Corner challenge #258 which wants you to use an Embossing Folder, then I also was inspired by the Sketch at the Paper Craft Crew Challenge #583. 

 

 Of course, since I added glitter paper for my background panel I want to share this cute card in the Little Red Wagon challenge #769 where they are requesting Sparkle and Shine and my Penny Black 'Winter Cheer' sentiment satisfies the challenge over on the Simon Says Wednesday challenge to 'Add a Sentiment'.

The glitter paper I've used is by DCWV and as you can see above, the Hearty Crafts Santa topper also has some gold glitter on it.  

The embossing folder I used is an oldie but goodie by Crafty Concepts and I've used the 2 largest dies in the Cottage Cutz  'Nested Wacky Stitched Square' die set to back my Santa topper.  

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and I hope you're having a wonderful day!  Time is flying so I really need to start creating for my November craft show.  I ran to Hobby Lobby today for some 'different' 12x12 holiday/winter paper to start making my Tissue Box covers (like I don't have any holiday paper already in my stash lol) so I think I'll start getting the boxes cut then when I get a few days in a row I will cut the designer papers and start a Tissue Box Cover assembly line!   I totally sold out of them last year so want to be sure to get enough made for this year.

As always . . .
