Isn't this the cutest Santa you've ever seen? He is from Anna Wight's new Whipper Snapper Gifts of Christmas cling-mount set. I've been wanting to try coloring with Copics on kraft cardstock and I finally got around to doing that . . . I love the look when paired with red and white!
I stamped Santa on Papertrey Ink's kraft cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then colored his suit with Copic R37, shaded with R39 -- I really like how the red pops against the kraft cardstock. Then I colored all the white areas with white Prismacolor pencil and highlighted his suit a little with it, too. Santa's boots are colored with Copic T5 & 100 and he's shadowed with W2.
Santa was cut out and matted with Spellbinders Classic Oval Nestabilities and popped up over the BasicGrey Wassail paper.
Spellbinders Snowflake Wonder die set was used to cut Neenah Classic Cream snowflakes. They are highlighted with bronze metallic rub-on cream. Clear adhesive gemstones accent the centers of the snowflakes.
I used CPS#87 for the layout of my card.
I didn't get the chance to post that "new/first time for me" project last week, but it's coming tomorrow!
