Sometimes I just don't know what to do with myself. So I start to play. I had a Gingerbread Man sitting on my desk, and after seeing other demonstrators turn their little guys into "others", I decided I needed a Santa.
And then he sat on my desk for another week.
This afternoon I used an old embossing folder and gave him a home at the North Pole. It's snowing there, but he's warm and happy!
I used a piece of 12" x 12" Two-Tone Cardstock in Pool Party, cut to 6" x 12" and scored at 6". The embossing folder is retired and I don't remember the name of it 😞, but after embossing I cut the mountains from the rest of the piece. The Light and Wonder dies has a great die that could be used to make a mountain if you wanted to duplicate this card.
For the Santa, I cut a second "man" in Real Red and one more in Basic Black. Then I just cut the "suit" and added in the mittens and boots. The "fur" is a piece of the hat from the Gingerbread Man dies; I just cut it several times in Basic White and pieced the pieces together to make the fur.
OK, time to get serious again...but I did have fun creating this little guy!
