Here is a jolly Santa themed Christmas card made using the Festive Friends stamp set and dies along with the Traditions of Christmas dsp.
Colours used to make this card are:
To recreate the traditional elf card, you will need:
Cherry Cobbler card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Traditions of Christmas dsp – 3¾” by 2” x 2 – different patterns
Scrap Basic White card
I glued the two pieces of Traditions of Christmas dsp to one of the Basic White panels, one higher than the other and both offset.

A strip of retired Cherry Cobbler and Gold ribbon (retired) was wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape. The panel was then adhered to the Cherry Cobbler card front.

I coloured the Santa in using the following Blends Pens – Ivory, Cherry Cobbler, Smoky Slate and Secret Sea and used the Color Lifter to fade the Smoky Slate of the beard.

The sentiment was stamped in Secret Sea ink. I added a bow and a trio of 2025 – 2027 In Color Gems finished the card.
