I hope all of you in the U.S. had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day and I want to share a card which might inspire you to get a start on those Christmas cards which you still need to make. Only five more weeks, can you believe it?
This is from my DT Inspiration post from the MHK Designs blog.
For this one, I used the globe image from the "Rock My World" set and "Distressed Dots" dp from the "Glorious Gardens digital papers" (see photos of the sets below.) First I printed the paper, then ran the paper through my printer a second time to print the globe directly on top of it.
I used a die set from Die-Versions to cut the Santa and Sleigh twice, once in brown and once in eggshell white, then layered them together, slightly offset. I printed and matted the sentiment. In finishing, I added only the three red pearls in each corner and the single red bow, wanting the focus to be on the image, not the embellishments.
