Double D Challenge - Christmas Wrappings

Hello friends.  Playing along with the gals over at the Double D Challenge where they have a wonderful mood board depicting all kinds of fun WRAPPINGS!


I went with bows and tags and have a card and a tag to share with you featuring a new stamp from Unity called A Little Ho Ho Ho.  They were offering pre-black Friday sales and I just couldn't resist this little guy!  Take a look...


Doesn't he kinda melt your heart?!  He sure did mine!!  I stamped him in black and then Copic colored him before adding a PTI Bold Borders: Polka Dot Die in Real Red cs to frame him out.


I've been in love with The Greetery's Regency Bow No. 1 die and have been putting bows on everything!!  I used silver mirror cs for this bow and I think it frames my little Santa dude perfectly!!  The card is busy enough with all the polka dots, so I left the greeting off the front and saved it for the inside.


When I stamp something I'm going to color, I always stamp 2 in case I mess one up. If I don't mess up, then I have an extra for something else, which in this case was super easy to make a tag out of for one of the grands Christmas gifts.  I used an older Casual Fridays tag die  and simply tied a piece of bakers twine through the tag hole. Easy peasy and done.

The DT has some awesome inspiration for you using wrapping ideas on cards and you can check them all out right HERE.  This challenge is open till Sunday, Dec. 14th @ 8:00PM.



Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

    What a great stamp. A little gnomey and a lot sweet santa. The frame you gave your beautifully colored Santa is fantastic and you tag really lets him take center stage.

    He is definitely cute. I can see why you grabbed him and you made a lovely card featuring him. Love the polka dot die to frame him and that lovely silver bow. Great tag also.

    Awwww, I love him! You sure did color him up perfectly and he looks just as adorable on the tag as he does on your very festive and fun card! Love the polka dot background, and I know that bow will have to be mine one of these days. It's pretty fabulous! Marcia, thanks for playing along with us at Double D. I'm always happy to see you there!

    What a darling little fella he is! Surrounding him with all of those polka dots and that fancy shimmery bow just kicks up the cuteness level a knotch... or two!

    This guy is adorable and I so love the way you framed him out with that polka dot die! Your coloring is wonderful and I love the dots surrounding Santa and the holly beneath his feet. The silver bow is the perfect finishing touch!
