As always, the step by step instructions to recreate my card are at the end of this blog post.

3. Die cut basic grey panels using edgelits
4. Add strips of gold foil behind the windows for the lights to be "glowing"
5. Stamp santa sleigh and reindeer in Memento ink on the top right hand corner of shaving cream background piece
6. Punch out 1" circle from so saffron cardstock and stamp a portion of the santa sleigh and reindeer onto the circle. Overlap the circle onto the shaving cream background so the sleigh images line up
