Growing in Unity: Day 4

Happy Thursday!

I hope you are having a wonderful today.  As promised in Monday's post, I'm back again using the rest of the stamps in the Jolly Ol' Santa set by Unity Stamp Company.  This Santa is so much fun to color.  There are a lot of great ideas out there, using "non-tradional" colors, but for me, Santa is a jolly old guy in a red suit, so that is what I stuck with.  I colored him with Spectrum Noir pens and did his background with Distress Oxide Inks.  I think Santa was really excited with the gold mist I added to the card.  ;-)



I also thought it would be fun to add a little texture with some white fluff on his hat and cuffs.


Thank you for visiting me today.  Make sure you comment on this post, and all my posts, to be entered to win 1 of 2 prizes from Unity Stamp Company!  You can find my previous post here:

See you again tomorrow with my final project.

Cheers!
Kristy

    1. I think this was called Sparkling Frost. There are a few companies that make these powders.

  26. Love this! I always love to look at the non-traditional color schemes people create on cards...but then I stick to the traditional colors on my own projects! Love that fluffy texture and the gold dots and splatters.

  27. Ooo...I really like this one. Santa looks like he’s in a magnifying glass making him pop. The coloring looks brilliant as well as the fluff for that added detail.
