Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
When I was cleaning out my UFO box, I found some of these Santas
all stamped and ready to color. So I pulled out my Copics and got to work.
This stamp set was retired long ago, but I love the stamps in the set and continue to
use them. I hope you don't mind.

Who could mind when those Santa's are just as cute as can be Bonnie...I sure don't mind seeing them over and over again! Your coloring on them is wonderful and I love the backgrounds you created for each of them too! Sweet, sweet cards my friend!! Hugs. :0)
I won't mind if you continue to use them year after year, Bonnie - he's such a wonderful Santa and you've framed and colored him so beautifully!
=]
He reminds me of some wood carved Santas I've seen, Bonnie, and you've colored him so well and given him wonderful backgrounds.
Sweet Santa & beautiful coloring, Bonnie!!
Now why would we mind a well-aged stamp? You've mastered the use of this Santa in two ways, but I'm sure he'll be good for another hundred years of use. Very nice cards!
Bring him out every year. Bonnie he's fantastic! Two marvelous cards!
I love them both! Such an awesome image and your coloring and backgrounds are perfect!
Two beautiful cards using this lovely Santa image Bonnie with some brilliant colouring. It's always good to use up some bits that have been waiting for some creative love. x
Both wonderful designs and great Santa's. x
Just beautiful, Bonnie - such a fab Santa! Love the scenes you set him in too - he leaps off his cards! Thanks so much for playing at Sparkles!
What a lovely long tall Santa Bonnie (or St. Nicholas in his long robe) - wonderful coloring and arch framing! Hey, we have to use what we have right and people probably have similar Santas from other companies. Thanks for joining us at Inkspirational: Santa! Julia xx
Of course we don't mind you using old stamps. In fact I like to see it. I can definitely see why you like that Father Christmas, he is so elegant. Great cards xx
Nope, we don't mind at all. You did a wonderful job coloring Santa. Love your cards. I use old stamps & dies a lot and combine them with new also. Thanks for sharing.
Mind? No way! I would love to see the oldies more often. No matter that it's retired or out of business, or whatever. This reminds me of my pencil Santas that I put on the windowsill every year. They're some of my oldest pieces but favorites. This looks absolutely wonderful, Bonnie!
Love that old-fashioned Santa! Love the layout of each card and the rich colouring.
Such a classy Santa! Beautiful cards!
For some reason when I commented on a card of yours the comment went to two cards. Never had that happen before. Love this Santa and too bad he’s so hard to find. Beautiful coloring and framing too!
Simply Beautiful Colored Christmas Cards, dear friend:-) Thank you so much for sharing. Love and Hugs this Christmas Season :-)
Beautiful cards Bonnie and the first with the embossed snowflakes makes him standout wonderfully. Thanks for sharing with us at Sparkles!
what a beautiful vintage Santa, two great layouts. I do love the red and white of the first ♥
Both cards are beautiful. I can see why you love this magnificent vintage Santa stamp.
Love your old fashioned Santa, Bonnie. Two beautiful cards, my friend. xx
