Santa on Vacation?

Howdy Crafters - I have a Summer Theme Christmas Card today. Thanks for stopping by ~ enjoy your day! Gail John 3:16

Recipe
Kraft cardstock for base of card
Scor-pal to score base of card
Watercolor cardstock by TH for water background - lower portion of card mat

I used Distressed inks on a sheet of plastic - spritzed with water and then pressed it down on the watercolor paper - such a cool look!
