This week I decided Santa Claus was what I wanted to do for the Person theme. I bought the Santa Collage from Rubber Stampede a long time ago when it was on clearance after the holidays, and every Christmas it gets a work-out. The sketch I used is from one of my favourite sketch blogs, Tuesday Morning Sketches. I stamped the image with versafine Sepia, did a bit of distressing, then I did the Burnished Velvet techique using warm glitter ritz. It’s really sparkly IRL.
Here is a close up of the sparkle on the image.I’m not sure you can even see how glittery it is.
Supplies I used:Image Santa Collage from Rubber Stampede
