The Detailed Santa Thinlits Dies make for easy cards! My card today is simple because I wanted to try the thinlits without worrying about creating a masterpiece. However, the possibilities to dress this card up are endless.
Because these thinlits are very detailed I found it best to use the precision base plate. However, if you don't have one, then consider using some wax paper with your sandwich.
The decorative strip at the bottom of my card is courtesy of one of the thinlits in the set. And, my sentiment can be found in the Greetings from Santa stamp set,
A cute sentiment for the inside can also be found in the Greetings from Santa stamp set.
After learning how the Detailed Santa Thinlits Dies work, I created a shaker card. I will share it later this week.
What additions would you like to see on this card? Although I have been very busy preparing for my annual scrapbooking/stamping retreat, I took time today to create samples for my event. These are not original but cards that I liked and wanted to try. Leave me a message if you would like me to post them for you to see.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Hugs,

Love this card! I will have to try it! I will see the cards at the retreat! However, I vote for you posting them. It is easier to copy that way!
I am all for you posting cards you like. This Santa is a card I like and I like how you played it out. The white on red shows all the details. Very nice card.
Heavens yes, post those cards especially since I can’t attend the retreat. I want to see them! The more the merrier is my motto especially if I am not making them! I like this card but there is something weird about his glasses – they look like sunglasses or something dumb like that. I have thought that about everyone’s card that including the one SU did. I think that is sort of funny though. Maybe a fake Santa in sunglasses stole my candy cane when I was a kid? But, I really like the swirly beard part. Plus, the sentiment is great. I know, I am a bit weird!
My vote is Heck ya post all your samples! I’ll be lucky enough to see all your cards at retreat but it’s easier to case if I have them on my computer. Looking forward to retreat! Oh by the way I like this card!
