Inspired By #150... deer Santa!

                                

"Deer, Santa"  get it?  Well, it was the perfect opportunity to print out another sheet of my custom letter to Santa from my little self, complete with misspelled words, and confessions of sorts.

Here's today's take on that thought:  a little sucking up cannot hurt this time of year...


I just love that Santa in our inspiration photo this week - maybe a vintage look for your card?  Can't wait to see it in our IB150 gallery!

So cute and so fun for the season, Michele. Love the letter in the and as the background. Your Santa and reindeer images are so fun and colored wonderfully. Such a great card. Thanks for sharing!

Have to tell you about my great nephew. Several years ago, he wrote his letter to Santa apologizing for being so "greety." He scaled back his list, and 'only' wanted a $200 GC! What a kid! Your letter background reminded me of him, and I knew you'd get a kick out of his spelling. Love your fun Santa, and his pal, too. Such a fun time of year for cards, right?! Hope all is well. Sending hugs. Bev

Boy, you're really on a tear...a Christmas one. These images are precious but what is so intriguing and fun about this card is trying to read your custom letter to Santa. I want to know all your secrets and confessions.

Your custom background is just sooo much fun, Michele ... Santa and his ice-skating pal are just perfect against it! Brilliant colouring too ... especially Santa's beard ... it's positively touchable! Hugs, Anita :)
