This set, Santa's Suit, is just filled with fun. It's like paper dolls all over again, except it's Santa! Being Photopolymer, lining up the solid stamps to give the outline stamps color, is just so easy. I can see I was off a little, but others were spot on. A suggestion when you stamp these, stamp several of each outline (black) you plan to use and then that will give you some practice stamping the solid (red). Even if it's off a bit, it still looks great!
Very Simple Recipe:
Real Red - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Whisper White - 5 1/4" x 4" (times two - inside and outside)
Whisper White for stamping Santa's and accessories.
Stamps - Santa's Suit
Ink - Memento Black and Real Red,Soft Suede (for clothespins)
Ivory Stampin' Blends for Skin
I popped up Santa with Stampin' Dimensionals so he looks more like jumping. I was going to pop up the clothes with Stampin' Dimensionals as well, but then the clothespins would have been really hard to do
Don't forget to decorate the inside with some of your spare pieces!
Thank you for looking in today! It's Hump Day!

So much fun! I have seen several fun cards made with this set recently but when I saw it in the catalog I told myself that is one I can do without since there are so many I do like better in the catalog. I keep hopping on the fence but no I need to stick to my guns though I love his red "union suit" as my grandma used to call them. Dang, I wish we lived closer so I could borrow all your fun stamps! I like how you made him look like he is jumping to get his clothes off the line. Of course the inside is cute too! Great job as usual!

We think so much alike! When I first saw it, I thought I could do without it as well, but the more I saw it the more I decided I had to have it.
