santa, baby!

our new prompt at ♥JINGLE BELLES♥ is a really fun one, so i hope you'll c'mon over and play along! for "santa baby" we invite you to make a holiday card featuring mister christmas himself OR any other denizen of the north pole: missus claus, the elves, dasher, dancer, rudolph...? heck, invite the whole gang and make it a party! :)

i went with santa, because this october afternoon chipboard sticker has been burning a hole in my creative pocket for several weeks!

 (patterned paper: love elsie, echo park; chipboard: october afternoon; arrow sticker: daisy d's; tape: love my tapes; pen: copic; ink: colorbox; adhesives: tombow mono runner, 3m foam tape, sewing machine)

i've paired him up with my last little leftover strip of echo park trees, some seriously vintage love elsie papers, and a few other bits and bobs from both holiday and regular stash. this month at merry mondays they are letting everyone make their own challenge by choosing ANY mm sketch they fancy, so i used this totally fun one:


you've got until wednesday, august 8th to link up with us at ♥JINGLE BELLES♥ we can't wait to see you over there!
