CAS Christmas November Reminder - Santa


Hello there!  I'm here with the reminder post for this month's Santa challenge at CAS Christmas.  It's hard to believe, but Christmas is just a little over a month away!  I must say this is the first year I am not rushing to complete my Christmas cards!  YAY!  And here's my card.


Remember how fun it was to  play in the snow and make snow angels?  Well, Santa thinks so too! 😉  This snow angel-making Santa was waiting to be put on an action wobble.  Action wobble cards are the easiest interactive cards to make.  Here's a short video of it in action.


Using Copic friendly black ink and stamping on X-press It cardstock, stamped the hat from the same set first, masked it then stamped Santa.  Removed the mask and coloured in with Copics.  Had to fussy cut the image out because there is no coordinating die with Santa wearing the hat.


Next an Antique Frame panel was die cut from mixed media paper.  "Snow angel" marks were created by dry embossing with Infinity Circle nesting dies.  The sentiment was black heat embossed using Versafine black ink and clear glitter embossing powder.  Mounted Santa with a mini action wobble then added some white glitter Nuvo drops for snow to finish. 


The challenge ends in a week on November 24, so there is still time to get your entries in.  Our wonderful guest, Pam of Expressions with Heart, and my team have created more fabulous reminder cards and you can see them on the CAS Christmas blog HERE.  Hope to see you in the gallery.  Thank you for visiting.

Trina, I love your little Gerda Steiner Santa and the fact he's attached with a mini action wobble makes him even more adorable. Great snow angel marks with the die embossing :)

This is such fun, Trina! As always beautiful job of coloring! I love the infinity circles that hint of movement and I'm going to have to get some of those wobbles!

Wow, what a fabulous idea to use an action wobbler to make this adorable Santa making snow angels, Trina! It's so fun to watch him in the video. Your coloring and fussy-cutting (especially all those curves!) are amazing (as always)!
