Jolly Friends Santa

Paper Craft Crew Card Sketch 214

Are you ready for a vintage feeling Santa? The Jolly Friends Stamp Set with the coordinating Jolly Hat Builder Punch is lots of fun. The current sketch with the Paper Craft Crew really called for me to use this stamp set. The Santa Figure stamped in Smoky Slate was the perfect fit along with a cozy Garden Green Scarf and Knit Cap. Santa is definitely not wearing his usual outfit.

The background features the Warmth & Cheer Designer Series Paper Stack layered with Crumb Cake card stock. The Layering Circle Framelits layered with Garden Green card stock sets the circle off. I used the Tin of Tags Stamp Set for the sentiment which is accented with the Metallic Thread Combo Park. The background is stamped using the Perpetual Calendar Stamp Set.

Tips, Tricks & Reminders from SunnyGirlScraps:

Jolly Friends Bundle! Bundles are a great way to save money! Stampin’ Up! offers 10% off on bundled products. The Jolly Hat Builder Punch is adorably paired with the Jolly Friends Stamp Set! This stamp set has an amazing price point that makes it very attractive.
When using the Jolly Hat Builder Punch, take note as to how the hat and each item is placed so it is easier to align the punch with the stamped image when you are ready to punch out your element.
Have fun with the possibilities. The Jolly Friends has so many fun elements which can be mixed and matched for a variety of images. There are endless possibilities!
