Black, White & ......can u guess?

"" Merry Christmas to all & to all a Good Nite!! ""

I'm a GDT for the Christmas Stampin All Year Long (CSAYL) blog this week & the challenge over there is to :

USE BLACK, WHITE & ONE OTHER COLOR.

I chose RED as my other color.

The sponsor this week is A Perfect Presentation where they have some fantastic templates & the winner of the challenge will get to choose a template from their store! 

 I got to choose one of them & I choose this super cute sleigh.

Santa's sleigh.

Magnolia Santa, that is!

hee hee

This is what the sides look like , the other side is 'sans Santa'.

I bet you are wondering how he's standing right.

Well, I left some paper at his feet, which the pictures below depict, & some paper at his hand that is leaning on the sleigh. I folded the paper down behind his hand & then added the same color paper (as the sleigh) to the white parts that showed. So it looks like he's leaning right against his sleigh right!?>!> Then I pasted him there. Permanently.

Cool I know!

The feet, well that isn't so cool, I'm just hiding the white parts on the feet by the presents.

See, Santa is standing with paper folded sideways, like so!

No magic!

I added some white fleecy fluff to the inside of the sleigh, cuz Santa needs to be comfortable you know.

I JUST, JUST, just got this tag die cut  from Whimsy in the mail on Monday, with the help of a Whimsy gift cert I won from a challenge. Now I have a little gift card holder come Christmas time.

Pls head over the CSAYL  blog for some more great inspiration from the rest of the team.

Thanks for stopping by.
