Retro Santa Box Card

Good Morning followers & welcome new followers,

Today I would like to show you some Santa Box Cards that I made.  I'm usually not happy with my work (you know how that is) but I love these box cards and the way they turned out. I love these retro Santa's they remind me of the 1950's.


I am trying to make two of every card I make.  I don't think you can see it but I embossed & chalked both cards, added some stickles, flair, buttons & twine. To see the embossing you can click on the picture to make it bigger.

Here is what they look like from the side:



I stamped the back and that is where I will write my greeting.

  5. What awesome cards! Love making these and usually make several bases out of white card and store them away for decorating later. Absolutely adore your idea of making Santa come out of the chimney. What a clever crafter you are!
    Wishing you much joy this Christmas season,
