Here Comes Santa Ink-Blended Holiday Card with Vanessa

Hi everybody! Vanessa here today with an ink-blended card using the Here Comes Santa stamp setI wanted the scene to look like Santa was just starting from North Pole, so I tried to create a background that imitates the Northern Lights.

I started with a panel of white cardstock and applied various Distress Oxides with an ink blending tool. Then I used a very small sponge and added streaks of white pigment ink to achieve that glowing impression.

Now I stamped the silhouettes with black ink and added stars with a white gel pen. Finally, I adhered the panel to a black card base.

What do you think? Mission accomplished? Thank you for visiting today, see you next week!

  2. This card is sensational!! The northern lights are amazingly beautiful! If you don't use the (really cute!) Santa, you could easily use this same design for a winter birthday card, or even a "warm winter wishes" card.
