Christmas cardmaking is finally coming to a close! After retrieving all of the cards I had made during the year, plus some stragglers from Christmases past, I find I'm down to a last 9 cards that I need. So I chose a very easy layout that could be produced in a multiple of 9 and still get in the mail in time for Christmas. I looked to Peace on Earth Christmas: December 2025 Challenge #101 for inspiration. I remembered I had a very old rubber Santa stamp that I've never used.
I stamped Santa on kraft paper with dark brown ink, colored him with Prismacolor pencils and Copic markers, and die cut him with a square die. I mounted him with a red mat onto a slightly larger die cut square, and glued the layered assembly to a card base on which I had red heat embossed the sentiment. The final embellishment was to add a die cut Tim Holtz bow and greenery. Very easy, so I should be finished by the afternoon!
