Santa Claus is coming to town and a Beautiful Blogger Award!!

Hey there!

I got a chance to play around today and a lot of the new challenges this week are 'Christmas in July' - boy was that ever hard to get into after having just returned from a summer vacation!! However, I managed it and I used this fabulous Magnolia Santa image and sentiment which I received in a RAK from dear sweet Cheryl. I've used this weeks sketch from Friday Sketchers which is from the fabulous Jaqueline. I'm also entering this into the Magnolia Down Under Challenge which is 'Christmas in July' and also for the Winter Wonderland challenge blog which is 'Santa Claus is coming to town'. Woohoo - 3 challenges in 1 card!!

I've coloured in Santa with my copic markers and used Liquid Applique on his hat and glossy accents on his glasses. Here's a close up picture hopefully showing those details are little clearer.

Finishing details to the card are some Prima poinsettia flowers, MS branch punch, sewing, and some snowflake embellishments from my stash.

Thanks for taking the time to come by and leave a comment - it's always so much appreciated. My beautiful blogging friend, Linda, also passed on this fabulous blog award to me - thank you so much Linda, it is truly appreciated!

I hope you're all enjoying a wonderful Sunday!

Hugs,
