Merry and Bright



I am sooo happy with my Christmas card this morning for the Merry Monday #112, feature a Santa hat challenge.  I have this large santa stamp for years and I have had lots of trouble trying to get a nice print from it...tried all sorts of inks today (see second pic) and finally I tried my brayer with Adirondack die ink (currant)...wow I was soooo pleased with the result - so I've stamped it on a lovely vintage background paper and welllaaa!! -  and there's another card to add to my Christmas stash. Thanks for taking a peek Robyn
