Mixed Media Mojo - Christmas In July/Twist Santa

It's time for the latest Mixed Media Mojo Challenge, the theme is Christmas In July and the twist is Santa.

For my DT project I've made a Christmas cracker, I made the Santa to decorate the cracker but I decided he was to big and didn't look right. I won't give details of how I made him as I might use him on something else.


I coloured the background with red, green and white acrylic paint, then I used a pitt pen to colour an Impression Obsession stamp and stamped the background.


I stamped some snowflakes and some gold stars.


I used a Creative Expressions cracker template to make the cracker.



This photo shows the gold stars.


This is the finished cracker. The holly was made using a Sizzix  Holly Branch die.
