Santa Sneak Peek & A Blog Award

Here is a little sample I put together with the Treehouse Stamps Santa digi that will be released on October 1st.

I colored the image with coloring pencils.  I used diamond stickles for Santa's beard, hat, and sleeves.  The top note die panel was embossed with a sizzix embossing plate.  I used paper piercing around the edges of the red cardstock for this week's Stampin B's Design Team Challenge #77.


Also this week I got a blog award from my friend Brenda

.

 I'm so excited to pass this award on to 7 blogs that inspire me!  I wanted to share this award with all of my design team at Treehouse Stamps so I ended up passing it along to 9 blogs....
