Saint Nicholas Christmas card

I have been looking forward to using the gorgeous Saint Nicholas stamp set and have used it today to make a pretty Christmas card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the Saint Nicholas card, you will need:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛ – rounded upper left corner
Real Red card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside

 

Using the image of the sack of presents, I stamped along the bottom of the Pool Party card front in Pool Party ink.
