Fun with Santa

I love vintage and have collected many vintage stamps. This particular image is called 'Fun with Santa' and is made by Stampinton & Co. The background was done with a Cuttlebug embossing folder which I brayered in vintage sepia, then heat embossed with clear EP mixed with some dazzling diamonds. The image was also lightly brayered and embossed with the same mix of EP. This is such a fun stamp and very easy to work with. Plus, the possibilities are endless. Hope you like vintage as much as I do!
Supplies: Stamp - Stampinton & Co.; Paper - SU! very vanilla, really rust and PTI dark chocolate; Ink - Versafine vintage sepia as well as VeraMark; Accessories - Cuttlebug, clear embossing powder mixed with dazzling diamonds, Fiskars deckle scissors and star punch, brayer.
