I cut a green tag and used Mowed Lawn distress ink through Stamplorations Just Squares stencil for a tone on tone look. Then I stamped the sentiment 'I've been very, very, very good this year' from MFP Dear Santa set in versamark and embossed with gold powder. I stamped and embossed MFP Nutcracker, also on green card!! Made for interesting skin tones!!!! I coloured with various shades of green sharpie markers. His gold embossed eyes also looked a little strange so I added some google eyes and embossed his beard with white puff powder. I think he looks like a child who has been asked if he's been good and he's trying his best to say 'I have, I have, really I have.....'

Beautiful card; love the green and gold color combination. Thank you for sharing with us at MFP SF&F Challenge.
This turned out great in the bright green with the gold embossing. Love how you did the nutcracker with the puffy beard and googly eyes. I really enjoyed experimenting with this technique.
