St. Nick

I have a couple of Christmas cards to share today, made using stamps from the 'St. Nick' set by Jane's Doodles that I got for my birthday recently. I stamped the images on to snippets of watercolour paper, coloured them using watercolour pencils, then carefully cut them out. I made a simple background by heat embossing my Simon Says Stamp 'Magical Stars' background stamp in white on a snippet of red card. I added strips of that accross the card blanks, then popped the images on top using 3D foam pads. The sentiment stamps are from the 'Scribbly Christmas' set by Tim Holtz for Stampers Anonymous.
