A little vintage Santa

It's Tuesday and my day to share my Design Team card I made for Try Stampin' on Tuesday

 

This week is Sketch #97 (see sketch below)

 

I decided to use some scrap pattern paper from a previous project.

The colors were just screaming VINTAGE and I had the prefect vintage Santa image to use.

 

I started with a light tan A2 card

Layering olive paper on top of card, which I had distressed with an olive ink pad

 

Pattern paper from Carta Bella - Christmas Day, which is a double sided cardstock

I cut a banner for the striped side and cut a scalloped edge for the polka dot side

 

Stamp the vintage Santa image from Close to My Heart in Vineyard Berry ink onto light tan paper

Punch out the Santa image with 1-3/4" circle punch

Punch out a 2" circle from olive paper

 

I then stamped the Joy sentiment from My Favorite Things in Olive ink onto Olive paper

Punch the sentiment out using a 1" circle punch

I also cut the oblong image from Cricut - Elegant Edges page 27 at 3"

 

Layer all these pieces together as shown in the photo

 

I finished the card by adding Olive ribbon and tan adhesive pearls to the card.
