Happy Christmas Eve everyone.
Today I thought I would share with you a very special Christmas card. This fun card design is the one I created for my parents and it has a special connection to them. As soon as I saw the So Santa stamp set in the 2018 Holiday Catalog, I knew I had to order it. The fun images in this stamp set are so whimsical and the "Scooter Santa" made me think of my parents who used to work for the Post Office when I was young. My Mum used to deliver the mail on a scooter so it seemed like the perfect image to use on their Christmas card this year.
For this card I chose to use Thick Whisper White cardstock for my card base and added a layer of Dashing Along Designer Series Paper (item #149903). I just love the snowflake design and Cherry Cobbler is a wonderful red for Christmas cards.
I stamped the Santa image and sentiment from the So Santa stamp set (item #147821 Clear Mount) with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a strip of Whisper White cardstock and colored the image with a variety of Stampin' Blends Markers. I just love how vibrant these colors are and the Stampin' Blends Markers are so amazing to color with. I layered the Whisper White cardstock strip onto a layer of Cherry Cobbler cardstock and attached it to the card front.
To finish off the card, I added a little Clear Wink of Stella to the Santa image for a little sparkle. I just love the way this card came together and I will miss this cute stamp set. If you would like to order the So Santa stamp set or the Dashing Along Designer Series Paper, I recommend that you place your order soon. Both of these wonderful products are retiring and are available only while supplies last or until January 2nd, 2018.

Until Next Time.
Happy Stampin',
