Vintage Santa

Here's my Santa entry for Hel's Sunday Stamper, and this also fits the Simon Says challenge for whatever makes you happy. 



I cut the frame from some TSS metal using a die, sanded and antiqued it a bit and put this wonderful vintage Santa in from Artistic Outpost stamps.  Santa has been lightly colored, stickelized and sprayed.  He's now all ready to hang!  hugz.............

Good to see you! I really love the way you treated the Santa image. It looks antiqued it is wonderful. The frame is great, too! You are so creative. I love the bright red...it brings the lightly used red in the image...I seriously almost said, "photo!" oops! LOL

Thanks for the great sharing!
