Santa Is Coming!

Happy Thursday!

Today is my day to post over at Miss Kate Cuttables' blog.

It has been a terrible year here at Graham Manor.  The year has just flown by and I have not had any time to enjoy it, the holidays, or even the change of seasons.  As you may know, my husband was diagnosed with Stage IVB Lymphoma.  And since his diagnosis, it has been one thing after another, from chemo to blood transfusions to infections.  

But it is November, which means snow (here in the North) and the upcoming holiday season.  So I want to be sure not miss anything.  I LOVE snow..I love seeing the kids' faces at the first snow fall and the realization that Santa will be coming soon.  

To help me get in the correct mindset, I created a few cards.  


I used Miss Kate's Christmas House Border and Reindeer Pulling Santa.

I cut the files out of black card stock.  

For something to anchor the images, I created a night scene on a white card base with my Copic airbrush system, Copic markers, and a circle mask (for the moon).  



Each card's background varies.  While creating the bases, I experimented with the marker colors and intensity of the amount of color laid down.
