Santa's Jalopy

      My first post was for Halloween, and this one is for Christmas.  Even though our challenges at Jan's Digi Stamps don't start again until the first Monday in November, my card today features one of the new releases from Jan's Digi Stamps, which is on sale the entire month of October!   It's called "Santa's Jalopy" and I think it's adorable!  I merged the image and the sentiment (also from the set), then colored with Pro-Markers, sparkle gel pen, and silver paint pen.

     The background dp is from Graphic 45 (an old 'Joy to the World' stack)  and I added sparkle twine, tied into a bow with a sequin added.  Very CAS and flat for mailing.


I pulled my colors from this inspiration photo
at CMH Color Dare #463 - red, green, gold, brown, white gray

     Challenges:
Allsorts (Christmas, Santa, ProMarkers)

     You really should check out the other sets on sale this month.  Just click on this link to get to the store.  Also, take a moment and go see what the rest of the DT have created by accessing the Jan's Digi Stamps blog.

     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
