Santa Baby!

Santa is the theme that Miz Judy set for us at Sassy Cheryl's challenge this week and what better excuse than this to get another Christmas card made for mailing. I can't believe how far behind the eight-ball I am this year... where does the time go?

So, here's my card for the challenge.



I scanned a calendar that I had and resized it for my background paper. After coloring up Santa and Snowy, cut them out to paper piece. There's snowy glitter on the hem of Santa's suit and also on the Martha Stewart snowflakes.  For the sign, I cut up a toothpick and mounted my sentiment. Easy peasy!!

Come and play along with us at Sassy Cheryl's challenge. Our rules changed recently and you don't have to use a Sassy Cheryl image, but we sure love when you do. See you then, sassy friends! Have a fantastic week!
