Stampin' Up! Santa Suit

 I made these Santa suits last night for the kids.

Check out how I used the Festive Felt Sheets.

They are on page 29 in the Holiday Catalog.

Notice how I made a pocket on the inside, so that I can add some cash for them.

 I hope they like them!

I think that they turned out cute!

Here are a couple of tips:

1. I lightly scored down the center/middle of the card front, so that I had a straight line to follow when sticking down the 2 red felt center strips.
2. I die cut the White Felt collar out of 2 Stitched Triangle Dies.  To make them more sturdy, I also cut 2 Whisper White card stock triangles that were exactly the same.  I then adhered the White Felt directly over the top of the Whisper White card stock triangles.

Here are the supplies & dimensions so that you can make this Santa Suit card too! 

stamp set:  'Tag Buffet' (for the inside of card)

card stock:

• Real Red-  4 1/4 x 11"- score at 5 1/2"- fold in half for card base

Stampin' Up! Lots to Celebrate

 Check out my HOME decor board I made.

as the "O" inserts for it.

These can be put on or removed, using velcro dots.

 Here are the different "O" inserts I made.

There are- hearts, daisies, stars, pumpkin, leaves & snowflakes.

The Jar images are adhered to a 2 1/2" circle.

 Check out how I added the different colors of leaves,

 when stamping them into the jar.

 This is a totally Susie decor & I just LOVE it!

Someday when I have time- I'll be making more Jar inserts too for this.

And I plan to hang this in my kitchen.
