sshhh

I can't believe I haven't used the WOJ Santas and I've had them sitting on my desk for a few weeks now. I've used the sketch on Stamp with Fun and I distress the edges, yes I've had my Tim Holtz distresser out twice this week but its for the Everybody Art Challenge.
The papers are Glitz, lots of various dies to make the snowflakes and typically you can't see all the sparkle on them but the photographer has enough trouble taking photo's that doesn't look like they're on the Titanic without worry whether you can see the glamour dust.
I've checked how many Christmas cards I need and I've at least 60 to do and I'm starting to panic because I like them done by the 1st of December.
