4. Adhere the other polka dot layers to the other sections of the front of the card.
5. Ink up the sentiment “Wishing You a Holly Jolly Christmas” on ½” Basic White and cut to fit each end at an angle with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to inside layers.
6. Ink up Santa stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and color him in with the Blends. Daffodil Delight is for his Belt Buckle. Use a skin tone for his face. Use Wink of Stella for his beard, mustache and his cuffs on his sleeves. Punch him out with the Sweetest Star Punch. Add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of Santa.
7. Die-cut a Basic White circle, a Real Red circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Layer together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Attach Santa to the layers.
8. Add three Peppermints above Santa on the Real Red circle.
9. Adhere just the bottom part of the Santa and the layers to the bottom panel.
