Santa's Sleighride

I have a friend who often sends me her craft magazines from the UK after she's read them, and they always include a free set of stamps or dies. My friend apparently likes to read through the magazine but almost never keeps the free gifts...so she passes them onto me, yay! I die cut Santa and his sleigh ( by Helen Fitzjohn) and added it to a background that I fashioned from old, old paper by Paper Adventures. All it needed was a heat-embossed sentiment, cut with stitched flag dies by LDRS. The hardest part about this card was adhering the die cut, but I pulled out my trusty old Sticker maker and ran it through.

  1. Yay for using your sticker maker!!! They really are nice for those intricate die cuts, although sometimes I have to clear webs of adhesive out of the nooks and crannies of the diecut. (Could it be that my adhesive is a little bit old???? Nah....lol!) You made such a fun Christmas Eve scene with Santa & Co. flying through the moonlit sky. The sentiment is perfectly lovely with your flawless heat embossing, too. Beautiful card.

  2. It turned out absolutely great! Like Janis, I forget that I have one of those sticker makers. I think I'll pull it out and put in on my desk and hopefully will think of using it the next time.
    Thanks for playing with us at Cut it Up for our Outdoor Fun challenge!

  8. A very striking christmas card, Karen! I love the typeface of the sentiment. I also seem to end up with a sticky mess all over whatever i run through my sticker maker. Thank you so much for playing along with the August Rudolph Days Challenge.
