It’s not too soon to start thinking of special ways to deliver your annual greetings to friends and family. Here’s a hand-made Christmas card with Jolly Santa reminiscent of my early Christmas memories.
When I first eyed this stamp set in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog, I fell for this Santa. Seeing that the set has a companion die-cutting set won me over to place my order.
Since the stamp set includes both images and sentiments, it’s simple to whip up cheery hand-made greetings with just one product suite. The patterned papers clinch the deal. There are so many patterns in traditional Christmas style and colors, I know I’ll be using Every. Single. Sheet.
I took a few minutes to add color to the line art Santa with Stampin’ Blends. They’re my favorite coloring tool because I get beautifully blended images with no streaks.
I chose to add a strip of Old Olive “ribbon” across the patterned paper to anchor Santa and the Christmas greeting that was stamped on a Stitched oval. Overall, it’s a fun card with little fuss. Friends and family will be impressed with this hand-made Christmas card with Jolly Santa.
