Santa Claws Sleigh Ride

Hi,

Well the it's starting to look like Christmas in this house, the tree is up and i've been over to The Range to get a little tree for H, so he can put all the decorations on, that he has made - he wanted a tree as he thinks Santa won't know where to come to deliver his presents, if he doesn't have one :-).

I so love the old Penny Black stamps and this is one of them : 'Santa Claws Sleigh Ride / 824H / 1995', i've cut the image with : Die-namics - 'Pierced Squares', the card shape is : Go Kreate - 'Large Frames Frilly #9', the papers are : Cosmo Cricket - 'Jolly By Golly', the panel going down is : Die-namics - 'Fishtail Flags Stax', the bell banner is : Whiff Of Joy - 'Bell Festoon', the round snowflake is : Martha Stewart - 'Deep Edge / Skyland Snowflake', that is an edging punch, but ages ago i was shown how to turn into a circle, the sentiment is : Traditional Christmas Tag-Its, i didn't have gold pearls, but i did have gold embossing powder, so covered them and heated, the bell and ribbon is from stash.

 

The Challenges I Would Like To Enter Are :

Divas By Design - where the Challenge is 'Jingle Bells'

Winter Wonderland - where the Challenge is 'Dies And Punches' - the punch i've used is - MS - 'Deep Edge / Skyland Snowflake', the rest of dies

Fab N' Funky - where Challenge No: 239 is 'Anything With Die Cuts'

ABC Christmas - where 'X is for Xmas Music' - use some music paper 

MAWTT - where the Challenge is 'Inspired By A Song' - mine is 'Sleigh Ride'

Sweet Stampin' - where the Challenge is 'Let It Snow'

Thanks for looking and for any comments you would like to leave would be most appreciated, Luv Sam x

I think H has a very good point Sam, when mine clan were small they all wanted trees all over the place.

Lovely card today and the hell die is a must have I am thinking.
