Stampin'up - Santa's list

Hello everyone
Summer is certainly here, too hot for Santa's suit, so I had to create a frosty scene for this stamp design.

 I have reversed a canvas and lined the inside with white card. The paper on the outside is from Eastern elegance pack. An aperture was die cut using sizzix rounded tags die. A second piece of white card was die cut and added behind, and the top left corner was then embossed with Northern flurry folder. Some silver snowflakes(from Warmth and wonder) were stamped and the Greetings stamped and then embossed in black powder.

 I stamped Santa in black stazon, onto more white card, masked him, and then stamped Special season tree in olive, and the small snowflake in silver metallic ink. Santa's beard is coloured with white gel pen, his gloves in white craft ink,  his suit and hat in cherry cobbler, and his face with crumb cake. Dazzling details and gold marker highlight the decos on the tree.
The moose is from Walk in the Wild, stamped in suede, cut out and coated in crystal effects.
The two outside trees are from lovely as a tree, stamped in olive and suede marker and cut out. They are sponged with white craft ink to look misty. A strip of basic grey card has been embossed in square lattice folder and added across the bottom, sponged in white ink and painted with frost white shimmer. The sentiment is stamped in black stazon. The die cut leaves are stamped, coated in crystal effects and glittered.

Santa's hat, sleeve cuffs and coat front have been coated with polar white Flower soft, and a small pom pom added to his hat. The pieces were then all assembled, the outside trees and embossing were painted in shimmer white frost, a naturals button tied with twine and a small silver paper star added beneath the leaves. A few rhinestones in the snowflakes, and a frosted embellishment in the top left corner finished off.

This design is great on an easel or can be used as a wall hanging.

Enjoy your week and have fun crafting
