Using the Banner Triple Punch, crop a flagged end from a pattern of Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series paper.  Approx. 3 7/8 x 1 1/8 when finished.  Layer on card base with Snail Adhesive.

Use the Stamparatus to stamp the Santa from the Signs of Santa Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Whisper White Thick card stock.  Crop with the coordinating framelit (Signpost Framelits Dies) and a Big Shot.  Tip:  Use the Magnetic Platform to securely hold the die in place to get a perfectly cropped image.
