Second post of the day and I have 2 cards to share. The first card is for Merry Monday's #70, I have not played along in some time and fell in love with the sketch and knew just what I would do. Some time back a sweet friend of mine, Cathy from Empty Nest Crafter was so kind and sent me the most adorable Santa face stamp from Serendipity Stamps, isn't he just the jolliest? My patterned paper is from Doodlebug and is pretty old, I knew I would find the right use for it some day.

My second card is for this week's challenge over at Seize the Sketch and in fact it is their first challenge, how fun to be in on the fun the very beginning! I pulled out a stamp set that has been sitting in my stamp bin for some time, it was fun to play with and added a bit of festive sequins for a bit of bling!
