Very Vintage Santa

      This is the second post today.  To see the first one, just scroll down one post.  This one is for FarmQuest Country Christmas and my "country" elements are: vintage, quilted background, and Santa outdoors.  The "Country" is our only theme requirement, other than it must be for Christmas.

     This Santa image is from Jan's Digi Stamps, sized small enough to fit an A2 card, leaving plenty of room to show off the 'quilted' background.  I colored it with Sanjoki markers, then cut the image with a Tonic Studios die.  The "quilt" was pieced together with scraps from the Christmas basket.  I hand-printed the sentiment and cut it with an Avery Elle die.  The Ho Ho Ho ribbon was a left over bit from another project which was a perfect fit along the left edge.

     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
