Vintage Santa

Another borrowed stamp from a friend over the weekend. This is a Tim Holtz stamp which I have stamped with Tim Holtz Walnut Stain ink. Mounted onto brown glitter card. All edges distressed. Stickles around the edge of the card Ribbon from stash. Ticket a blog freebie. I just love this one & if I had not run out of funds, would have bought him myself.

I love all the things you create Dawn and this one is superb. Sorry I haven't been over to see you - but I am still alive, just. I have had the girls today so must catch up with paperwork tomorrow, and I am determined to still keep the creating and making going. Work continues to take all of my other time and will for another week or so. I will be back to commenting more regularly soon. Thankyou for staying in touch with me.
Take care.

Hi Dawn

Wow .. .. what an amazing stamp and how well you have used it.

Love the touch of red .. that is all it really needs and your papers and ticket finish it all off wonderfully.

How wonderful to have a friend you can borrow such a scrummy stamp from.

Love Jules xx
