Good Morning! I hope that this post finds you smiling as I was very happy with the end result as it brings back so many memories of the wonders, mystery and pure fun of "Santa" with the joy it brings to children!
I must admit, this is the 1st time I have played with this stamp set and WOW – did I have fun! I will share another great card with you on Sunday….I am adoring….simply adoring the blendabilities! I just wish there was more time to play with them.
I have lots of pictures for you today, as always….please feel free to email me if you need specific help with this card….I will say – I think that this is in the running for a holiday card (I better get going) – this Santa just makes me happy!
Here you go! Enjoy and let the reason for the season enter your heart! I am getting excited for the "peeps" to come home….making holiday cookies….planning yummy meals…visiting friends and family!
Using the Blendabilities is really fun. WHY??? Easy = You can't mess up! Because they are alcohol base they do not streak…(show lines)….you can color over and over and not hurt the paper….I am just tickled with them!
Please look at the below pictures and you will see that I did a bit of surgery on the Santa…."all is good" because there is a framelit for the mustache….which makes it soooo easy!
Tips and tricks thst make us look great all the time!
I love doing "tile designs" and today is no exception! So fast and easy….uses scraps up and the end result is fun!
Because this is a square card you need to use the Envelope Punch Board if you want to make an envelope….( I swear for just under $20.00 – this should be the tool of the year)….so fast and easy!
The Stampin Dimensionals make this "mustache" and "base" come to life as well as having fun with the White gel pen!
Well…thoughts?!?! – Please leave me a comment and let me know how you like today's post! Sunday's is using the other stamp in this set….totally different but totally fun!
John and I went to a Holiday Party last night and tomorrow I wil share with you the hostess gift I gave…so easy and so practical.Enjoy the day and until tomorrow….
I thought you would enjoy seeing a picture of Rosie….she acts like she has lived here all her life! She is so sweet and fits in with the "boys"
This card is ADORABLE!! I love the simplicity and the color scheme makes it even more delightful! Thanks for sharing and hope Rosie has settled in nicely – What a cutie patootie she is! Hugs to all!

Love the colors and the pattern you made with the squares, but Rosie is the best.

I love the blocks ~ quilt-like to me, makes Santa look good. I missed the swap this time around, so I hope you might post pics.
I love the quilt look of this fun card, your Santa with that big mustache looks just fabulous.
And Rosie looks just adorable, comfy, safe, warm and loved, what a lucky little puppy she is.

Love the card and love your puppy updates.
Nice card, Susan. I’m so impressed with how well your blocks came out. They looked so,good I thought it was DSP. Have a great weekend!
I really like the tile block background design. It’s a nice way to use scraps. The whole card is a lot of fun!
nicely done Susan. you make me want to buy this set.

And, Double Awwwww….Rosie is so adorable! She is dreaming of treats on Christmas morning!

Very cute both the card and Rosie! She does look like she is well adjusted! Love the home spun type of look with the “flannel” and the faux stitching! I still don’t get all this mustache fever! But here is works perfectly! Gotta run, Ted is gnawing on John Wayne’s boot…….
