Welcome back for week 18 of the Heart of Christmas cards. This week, I am using Hearts Come Home stamp set and Hearth & Home Thinlets.
As always, the step by step instructions to recreate my card are at the end of this blog post.

Step by step instructions to create you own card (inches are in bold)
1. Cut real red cardstock 21.6cm x 10.8cm (8 1/2" x 4 1/4") & score at 10.8cm (4 1/4") and set aside
2. Cut the following cardstock
- gold foil 10.3cm x 10.3cm (4" x 4")
- whisper white 9.8cm x 9.8cm (3 7/8" x 3 7/8")
3. Die cut detailed santa thinlets in whisper white cardstock. Die cut santa as many times as required to get the glasses frame/lenses in black/soft sky, santa hat in real red, santa's face in powder pink, santa hat fluff/beard in glimmer paper and sky in a blue (I used more of my leftover scraps from the shaving cream galaxy technique)
If you adhere multipurpose adhesive sheets onto the back of your cardstock before die cutting it makes it a lot easier to stick fiddly die cuts in place.
4. Adhere all the die cut detailed santa pieces onto a piece of scrap paper (and draw eyes in using basic black marker)
5. Adhere detailed santa onto gold foil cardstock and adhere onto real red card front

Great use of the left over shaving cream technique paper from last week. It looks great here. Love this santa!

This is very cool, Ros. In fact I think it's the best card I've seen using these dies!
