A big congrats to Alex, the newest Featured Stamper (FS447) on Splitcoast! What a fun gallery! I chose THIS to case. I kept the Santa & Ho Ho Ho, but I used a Santa image instead of punches & die cuts for my HO x3. 

 I stamped, colored & fussy cut the little Santa & attached him to a black die cut circle. I die cut the H & o 6 times and stacked 3 on 3 for dimension. The white frame w/ oval cut out was a leftover & since I was hurrying, I used it. I attached them & added thin black strips so they would look like they are hanging. For the narrow background, I stamped the Ho, ho, ho greeting randomly & colored them. Some sequins for sparkle were added at the end. These are the Copics I used for Santa.

Congrats again, Alex! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Today we are looking back at the North Coast Creations October Release!  I just love this Christmas Beach scene and I thought it would be fun to put a frame around it and have Santa wearing a beach outfit. After looking thru my NCC images, I figured out I could put Santa’s face (from Holly Jolly Christmas) on Pool Time Buford’s body and have a Santa all ready to go for a swim. The only thing I did other than color and cut them out, was to draw the socks on his feet. I added the greeting and little clouds on top of the frame.

The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used to color everything.
