A Side Order of Santa

Hello Nomad friends.  Hope you are having a wonderful and creative weekend.  I am feeling the jingle this weekend and want to kickoff with a slanted easel card.  This is the first time I have made one of these and I didn't make it easier for myself by using a shaped card base and a directional paper.  Ah well, I think it kinda works OK.

Here it is closed for sending.  I used sizzix patterned paper and Retro Santa dies with scraps.  I cut my base with a Kort og Godt fancy die that I love.   I am sure it will be featuring again soon......

 My easel opens to the side and I used some more scraps and stamps from Kort og Godt for my sentiment panel stop with snowflakes and a couple of star brads.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
