Merry Belated Christmas


I had a bit of fun on the weekend creating two Belated Christmas cards.  So totally forgot one for my brother and his family.  Also one for his MIL....  I had to do handmade as his MIL commented on how I normally do a handmade one for her.  oops!

So I googled and found these images of santa relaxing after all his hard work.  I printed them and attached them to some green Bazzill Two Scoops (this is an embossed cardstock that can be sanded).
The base card is red Linen Textured cardstock and on top is a layer of Christmas patterned paper I have had for a long time.

On this card I added the sentiment to the image before printing it out.  Then added this wonderful light garland that I have had for a little bit.


To finish this image off I used rub ons for the sentiment and cut the three 'Party Time' circles off a giveaway sheet from a magazine.

Off to make a 16th birthday card, two cakes and a little shopping for our daughters (our baby) birthday tomorrow.
