CAS Christmas November Mid month Reminder

It's time for CAS Christmas card Challenge mid month reminder which means November is flying by and we just have a few more weeks to make Christmas cards.

Come joinour Guest Designer is Pam from Expressions with Heart and the Design team in making some Santa cards.

You have until November 24th to enter the challenge, just remember to check out the challenge rules before you enter.

For my card I used one of the new Paper Artsy (JOFY) stamp sets. I stamped the Santa using Black Versafine Clair on watercolour card and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I watercoloured him and then fussy cut the image. 

I used a black pen to run around the edge, this hides any slight miss cuts. I also used an embossing tool and run it along the edge of the image to give it a 3D effect. I used a Nuvo sparkle pen to make his outfit a little more festive and a liquid chrome pen for his laces.

As the image is quite large I used a 5X7 card base, therefore making it a little more CAS than if I'd used a 41/4 X 51/2.
