This month our hostess is Bridget and she challenged us to Off The Page. I made a mixed media decoration, to put on a mantle or hang on the wall. I used my favourite Santa, I Believe stamp set, on a small sized stretched canvas. I used a Silhouette - cut template and Wendy Vecchi silver embossing paste, to do the textured background, and then another Silhouette cut: a snowflake frame (paired with a large Spellbinders circle), to put the Santa face on.
I added some life to Santa’s cheeks, by giving it some colour in light pink Copic marker (E93). The sentiment has been stamped in black pigment ink, on a piece of vellum. I finished with a big satin bow topped with a matching colour flower. Oh, and lots of sparkly gems
Thanks for taking time to visit me here in Australia, it’s time to grab your passports and board Flourishes Flight, your next and last destination is… Bridget’s blog!
