Festive Friday Christmas Card blog hop 19

With all the beautiful Christmas papers out it makes it easy to make cards.  This paper is from Antiquity papers and was cut into quarters and the first one I only had to scallop the edge to complete.  On the second card I added some blig with Jolie glitered stickers.  From one piece of 12 x 12 paper you could make 4 cards.  Easy Peasy.

what better than to combine the two.

                The wonderful sewing machine stamp item 14718 and thimble stamp  item 16135  are both from Viva las Vegastamps!

and the manniquen is a Tim Holtz stamp

I found this lacy print paper in my stash.  I added a few measuring tape stickers and Rub ons which are by Heide Grace.  I than stamped the sewing machine stamp over a piece I had previously stamped with a stitched outline.  I added the manniquin, the thread spools and the thimble. adhearing all pieces with scotch double sided foam tape.  I cut out leaves from a third piece of paper (which I also used as my backing), attached buttons for berries and a small scissor brad.

I decided to try a distressed look this time.  The santa stamp is by a company named Anita's.  I used Stazon ink for the Santa and the face is done with colored pencils.  The ink I used in the distressing is of course Tim Holtz distressed ink, Antique Paper.
