This Christmas card was created with the exclusive STAMPtember collaboration stamp/stencil set with Tim Holtz from SimonSaysStamp. This is a fun image of Santa giving out Christmas gifts. I'm excited to share some inspiration with you!

Coloring the image using distress watercolor pencils.

Even though some of the sky color was smooshed onto the tree, it didn't affect the color of  the tree and the green color turned out clean. The outline of the black ink slightly turned matte. The black can be treated as is or you can double stamp the image one more time to revive the look.
Picture
I decided to stamp the main image one more time and this is the before and after look. 
Adding some grit paste on the roof using a spatula to create snow

Adding more snow using snowy stencil and texture paste

I couldn't find a vintage red cardstock that I really liked, so I brushed the red frame using distress oxide lumberjack plaid ink pad for the backing piece.
Picture
Once I set the main image on the backing, it felt a little flat. Maybe it needs more decoration.
Picture
I decided to add a frame with snowy effect using glossy accents and mica flake.

The card is now completed. A fun card with Santa climbing up the chimney. Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas!_
