August CAS Christmas Challenge - Santa's Sleigh

Hi everyone.  Today is the start of the August CAS Christmas Challenge, hosted by the talented Julia.  She has chosen the challenge ...


For today's card, I made a night sky background using Brushos Powdered Inks on mixed media card.

Once dry, I added black die-cut Santa, Sleigh and Reindeer, along with a row of houses.  The sentiment is stamped in black ink to finish the design.  Easy and fun card to make. :)

  1. What a beautiful night sky you created with your Brushos, Loll! The wonderful silhouette die cuts of the village below and Santa in his sleigh with the reindeer really stand out against it! Julia xx

  2. That's such a great sky and it looks great with the black. I haven't had my brushos out for a long time. Might have to try and change that xx

  3. Oh, WOW, Loll! Such a gorgeous peek at Santa's secret delivery! Hey, is there some salt involved in your fabulous sky? Or is it just the magic of Brushos? SO gorgeous!
