{BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 61 ~ Here Comes Santa ~ Crafty Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's time for a new sketch challenge over in the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group! Today I'm sharing a fun Christmas card featuring a super cute stamp and beautiful papers from our fabulous Sponsor Crafty Stamp Co! There are two prizes this month up for grabs... (2) $25 gift codes to Crafty Stamp Co!! Yay! I sure hope you can play along!

So this adorable stamp is actually a sneak peek of a new release that will be available for preorder October 20th!! I'm so excited for this new holiday release!! SOOO many adorable stamps! I'll be sharing another sneak peek later in the month. But back to today's card, I used the adorable Here Comes Santa stamp set. I inked this cutie up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copic markers.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:

Santa: E000, E00, E11, R20, R14, R27, C0, C2, N4, N6

Sleigh: R20, R14, R27, E51, E23, E25, G24, G46

Tree: YG11, G24, G46, Y11, Y15

Presents: B000, B00, B02, E51, E23, R20, R14, R27

I paired up the sweet Santa with the wonderful Gingerbread Christmas 6x6 Paper Pack. I adore the colors in these papers. One of my most favorite color combos for Christmas! The background paper measures 5-1/2 x 4-1/4". The wide center strip measures 5-1/2 x 2". The skinny strip of red measures 5-1/2 x 1/8". And the pretty glitter paper measures 4-1/2 x 1-1/4". I adhered all of the papers to a white A2 top fold card base that I turned on the side for a landscape card. I popped up the sentiment and Santa with foam tape.

And then I finished off the card with a few red glitter enamel dots from my stash. Such a fun card to make! I am loving this new sketch!
