Christmas Card Throwdown April Theme Challenge

This week, Christmas Card Throwdown is challenging us to use SANTA in our cards.  Again this week I used a favorite old set from Papertrey Ink.  I should mention that my New Year resolution is to reduce craft spending to $0 and focus on or rediscover old purchases.  I inventoried all my stamps, stencils, dies, etc. in Evernote.  The process took time but the resulting insights are wonderful.  I really think I will be able to go a year without spending any money (except on cardstock and ink as needed). Revisiting sets seems to bring a plethora of new ideas with my increased crafty wisdom and knowledge since my original purchase.

Be sure to drop by and see the inspiration cards made by all the design team members and leave them some love!

Enjoy.  I can't wait to see your creations in the gallery.
