Simon Says challenge

Hello Everyone

I made today's card for the Simon Says Challenge which is a lovely sketch by Jay Jay. I had to play along. The theme for the card is a masculine Christmas. I used the gorgeous Santa Ian from The Greeting Farm and followed t he sketch. I used my new designer paper from SU in cajun and marina mist and the boarders are crumbe cake formly known as kraft. I used copics E08, E35, C100, E29. I added silver pen to his buckle and silver brads. The brads were added after I tried to be clever and used the single hole punch so that the background card came through the paper to act like brads, but i punched one set crooked. So the brad are hiding my mistake.

I hope you enjoyed the card.

  1. Fantastic take on the sketch challenge for Simon Says Stamp. I love that cute little Santa from The Greeting Farm. The stripes on your patterned paper really work well with the stamp too. Thanks for joining us on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog.
