This cute Santa stuck in the chimney is an old High Hopes stamp which I've had for a long time, so it's great to ink it up. He's quite large so I put him on a 5 X 7 card base.
I stenciled the snow with snowy texture paste and added texture paste to Santa's Hat and Jacket (mostly to hide a red watercolour run😏)
I die cut Let It Snow through the centre of the scene and added Nuvo glitter pen to the white snowy roof.

Absolutely divine, love this
Santa stamp and your die cutting...
Mediums used are a great feature .xx
Santa is so cute, Christine! I love the beautiful falling snow sky and the cool camouflage die-cut sentiment!

What a bright fun Santa Christine! love the eclipsed die cut through his jolly belly and the lovely snowfall! xx
So FUN! I guess Santa had one (or TEN) too many cookies. You’ve coloured and created a beautiful snowfall scene. Love the hidden diecut sentiment. xx
Oh, he's cute! Sometimes the oldies are the best. Santa may have to twitch his nose a few extra times to get down that chimney! Love how fixing boo boos can oftentimes add fun to a card we may not have considered otherwise.
Awesome card with your sweet Santa. Love all the texture. Thanks for joining us at CAS Christmas.
This Santa is just too fun! Love the way you painted him and added all the snow texture. Great fix with the texture paste too. How I hate when the smear happens and no clue how it happened.
This is so cute, Christine! Fantastic older stamp that you've kept ... I can see why. Great texture from your snowy paste and paste on Santa's outfit. That darn red!! :) The hidden sentiment is awesome! xx
Great idea to use the texture paste on Santa's cuffs, etc. to cover up the red run! Such a fun image of Santa stuck in the chimney - great watercolouring, snowy sky, and hidden sentiment.
This so made me smile!! I love your card... Santa looks wonderful against that sky and I love the way you did the sentiment!
Great card, Christine! I love the winter scene and this sentiment raised up.
Awesome inspiration!

Love your snow and the dimension it made. This scene is so cute and I like the raised sentiment.
I hope Santa has some magic to help him fit down the chimney! He sure is a pretty Santa and colored beautifully! Love this snowy scene, Christine!
Now that is one jolly Santa and I too hope he manages to get down the chimney.....LOL x Fun scene making, love the stencilling and the added white texture on Santa x.
Love.
What a wonderful Christmas card! I love all your texture; from your texture paste to your die cuts. Simply adorable. Santa looks great and I would never have realized there was a water color run if you hadn't said anything. Thanks for joining us at 12 Months of Christmas Link Up. Hope you'll join us again next month.
