Starry Starry Night

Hello Nomad friends.   Sometimes you just need to have fun.  So here we are, Santa in a green starry sky.  Ho HO HO!!

I used Die'sire Shining Star die.  It's pretty when it cuts, and then I noticed all the piercings and details.  They are very small and it took a bit of effort to work out how to get all that delicate emboss detail, but spritzing with water helped.  Then I used Library Green archival to highlight all the details.  I added it to a card base I covered with yellow marble construction paper.  I added a Santa sleigh reindeer die cut from black card and done.   

Thanks for dropping by.  Take care, remember to have fun.  Hugz

This card is so beautiful! Neat color selection, it glows! It doesn't even need the Santa, thought the silhouette stands out so nicely.
