Now, I know Santa's sleigh and reindeer are the mode of transport for the big night, but getting from point A to point B at the North Pole can also be a challenge. So, this year Santa has a new ride for his short jaunts! As my brother and his wife both enjoy the open air on their bikes, I figured this image from Just Inklined would be perfect for their Christmas card.
A nice simple card design, making the most of the colour red. The white snowy edging on the DP is something new that I found...glitter snow paint. It adds just a hint of glitter. Some gold card to mat the image and sentiment, a gold charm that I've coloured with copics, and a few gems all add just a touch of festive glam. I'm sure this card will bring a smile!
Supplies used:
Sidecar Santa image from the Best of Just Inklined CD
Colouring medium - copics
Spellbinders die - Labels Twelve
Simon Says die - Curvy Snowflake
Martha Steward - Alpine Snowflake punch
Fiskar's 3 in 1 corner punch
Thanks for dropping by, and here's hoping your Christmas preparations are coming along just fine! Take care and keep well!

Your coloring is exceptional! I honestly thought this was pre-colored and then fell out of my chair when I read it was not! Gorgeous work and I had the best chuckle at Santa on his new wheels!
