I've managed to ignore the roasting temperatures and pretend that it's cold and snowy whilst doing this month's card for CAS Christmas!
The challenge theme is 'Santa'.I have just 3 Santa stamps and this is one of them - it was a freebie many moons ago and I think it's likely this is the first time it's seen ink.
Santa and his reindeer actually have a large moon round them but I didn't want the moon that big so carefully removed the ink before stamping.
Ink blended background using a coin for my moon mask.
The snow drifts were done using a mask and Shaded Lilac ink.
Other stamps are Lavinia (Bunny), Inkylicious (Large Tree) and Cardio (small trees and twigs).
Sentiment is another mag freebie.
Another card for the Christmas Box!
There's a few other Christmas themed challenges about so am linking up at -

MIUCB - A/Goes option of CAS
Sweet Stampers - Christmas In July
ABC Christmas - O is for Old (my Santa and sentiment stamps)
Thanks for looking! x

Beautiful Christmas scene and the sentiment is just right as well. Certainly lots of Christmas in July challenges out there
You've created a perfect scene for Santa to fly through, Viv! Your ink blending and snowbanks are perfect and I love the little bunny checking out the sky! Thanks so much for the beautiful birthday card, my friend! I love that golden dragonfly!
There is something mystical about this beautiful image, Viv and you have created the scene beautifully. I love the subtle pinks and blues in the snow and how you have set the scene on the side of the card. Such a classy design.
Take care,
Hugs

I hope it did cool you down, must admit to be holed up in my darkened craft room as the temps hit 30'at the moment trying to find non energetic things to do!!! Great masking and stamping for this fab Christmas card and thanks for linking it up at HLS CAS. :)
Such a beautiful scene Viv.
