Supplies: Neat & Tangled sunburst stamp; Stampin' Up! santa & Ho!; Mustard Seed & Peacock Feathers distress inks; Memento Tuxedo Black ink; Bic & Spectrum Noir markers; Yellow Daisy Tattered Angels glimmer mist
I masked the star Santa so I could have the rays shining out from him, and goofed around with two inks. Then I painted over it with glimmer mist in an attempt to help the inks blend better, and well, it's not my favourite. But the sunburst stamp hadn't yet been inked up, and that Santa set from Stampin' Up has been in my stash forever (the copyright is 1999).

I think that's my new favourite Santa stamp! I love him! I have a Christmas ornament that looks just like him! Love how you have the sunburst all around him!
