Paper-Piecing on Kraft (Conquering Paper Mountain # 8)
He,he ....my partner has taken our son out, so I'm having a few hours crafting ....May even get dressed at some point.
Here, I used a very old Stamps Happen stamp and two techniques - my all-time favourite, paper piecing, and a new to me technique, pencils on kraft card. I don't think these are the 'proper' pencils as these are just watercolour ones (used without water here!) , but I think it turned out okay.
I also used several sheets from a magazine freebie 6x6 pad by Bo Bunny, therefore helping to reduce my paper mountain.

Oh it looks fabulous!! Love your choice of papers!
I think I recognize some of those papers from my own stash. I think you've made great choices of papers, I really like this clean but decorative look. And extra points for it being non lumpy, so this would be suitable to mail too.
This is fantastic! I love the trim on Santa's hat and coat - so effective! Thanks for joining us at 52CCT, April x
Terrific card with a great Santa image

The color scheme and paper piecing give off a great "country" or "homespun" vibe! Thanks for sharing your cute roly-poly Santa card with us at 52CCT!
