Cocoa and Cookies Santa

Hi everyone, its time for a reminder of the challenge over at The 12 months of Christmas linkup blogspot.

Santa will soon be here.  Are you ready for him yet?  To ensure you are not on the naughty list you should probably get all those last minute Christmas cards created and sent out.  Since you have to make them anyway, why not create one according to our optional theme this month for your chance to win yourself some extra presents this Christmas.

In order to have a chance to win the prize from our wonderful guest sponsor this month, we want to see a Santa image somewhere on your card. Now we are looking to see the big old jolly guy himself, no Santa substitutes please. 

Come and show us those lovely Christmas creations for a chance to win digi stamps and papers!

Our sponsor is Rick St Dennis and I've chosen to use Cocoa and Cookies Santa - https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/61137816/cocoa-and-cookies-santa-digi-stamp?ref=shop_home_active_5&ga_search_query=santa
