Another CFS card. The Santa image is from a clip art CD. I imported it into my Hallmark Cardmaking software and dropped the green plaid background behind it, printed it, then colored the Santa with a combination of BIC and SU markers.
The sentiment was computer printed, punched with a 1.75" x .875" SU oval punch and mounted on a red scallop oval that measures 2" x 1.125"
Inside sentiment: "Christmas to you!" printed using the Hallmark software.
I added some doodledots and used the SU tag corner punch on the Santa cutout.
This Santa is one of my favorite images to use for Christmas cards. It only requires 4 colors of markers and a white pen for accents.

Santa Face Card
This little guy is so cute! And talk about fast and easy to assemble!
It's a good way to use up white cardstock scraps as well as smaller pieces of red that you may have leftover from another project.
Thank you to Dee Slater, a SU demo, for sharing this idea!
It's an A2 sized card. I cut an 1 1/2" x 4 1/4" piece of red for his hat, ran 4 strips of white cardstock through various Cuttlebug folders and then tore the edges.
Layer the torn pieces onto the white cardstock then use a marker to make his eyes. Punch a 1" circle for the nose and pop dot it so it will stand off the white base.
Dee didn't give him rosy cheeks but I thought Santa always had rosy cheeks so I just brushed some chalk on with my fingertip. Then I added some white accents in his eyes and on his nose.
The snowflake is from Accent Essentials cartridge and was cut at 1". It's been accented with a Clear Star Gelly Roll pen to add a little bling.
The cardstock I used is pure white, it just has sort of a rosy tint in the photo. I haven't mastered using the digital camera yet. I keep experimenting with different backdrops, etc to get the best photo I can. I'll figure it out yet!
