For this week's Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge I am again using my Twas the Night Before Christmas set. I really do have other WM stamps! But it's fun to get a start on Christmas and I didn't get a chance to use this much last year. Besides, I really LOVE it! Today I used part of the 'A visit from St. Nicholas' verse stamped on Spring Moss. The three images are from a Stampendous set called Santa Trio. Actually I had forgotten I even had it. I was in Kansas City a couple of years ago and stopped at a couple of scrapbook stores. At one they were having a Make and Take with this set. I didn't have time to participate but bought the set and then put it away after I got home. Gosh, is everyone guilty of having too much unused "stuff"!
I colored with Copics and used a Snow Marker to add the puff on the hat. The sentiment at the bottom is embossed in silver.
I love having visitors--so glad you stopped by!
Smiles,
Sharron

I love your card Sharron! I have this set on my list for this next release, that poem will be so good for Christmas cards, both focal point and backgrounds. Your coloring on the Santa hat and boots was perfect. I have to check out that snow pen. Never heard of it, but I think I am going to need it!
Absolutely fabulous Sharron! The text bg is so perfect for your card! Great coloring too!I have also started making Christmas cards and I agree - it is so much fun and feels like you have lots of new stamps again!
What a fun card! The copic coloring is wonderful!
So cute! Love the Santa hat and boots added to this poem. I too, have bought that set and yet to use it! Thanks for reminding me about it. Great job on the sketch challenge.
I'm sorry it has taken me so long to comment on this truly adorable Christmas card. I love the way you combined the fun clothing items of Santa's with the poem! It looks absolutely amazing. Thanks for playing along with the challenge! We appreciate your participation and support!
