Stampin' Up! Be Jolly Santa Card featuring a Sketch Challenge!

Happy Monday! Last Wednesday, I gathered virtually with a group of demonstrators to stamp! We used Sketch #506 from Freshly Made Sketches as our inspiration, and today I wanted to share the card I made during that meeting!

Isn’t that jolly ole Saint Nick so adorable? I love that he looks like he’s dancing! I’ve included an image of the Sketch below, with a link back to the FMS website in case you’d like to take a peek through their other sketches!

Check out Freshly Made Sketches here. The Sketch is inspiration for your creating – but you can do so many creative things with it! I used the Sweet Stockings DSP as my stripes, and the Layering Circle dies for my focal point. For the sentiment, I wanted something skinny so I turned to the Bright Baubles set.

I love how the Pool Party and Cherry Cobbler mix together so well – and the Poppy Parade in Santa’s suit! I also stamped a few of the star images behind the circle to give some extra interest.
