Use your Stickers!

I made this card just for pure fun of challenges! Love when I get a chance to do that. One of the challenges was to use stickers. I have a ton of stickers…I have a ton of supplies!! Only if I had time to use them. So I decide to go with a Christmas card since I will sell them in Nov at the Retirement home so I need to have a good stash on hand. I saw the sketch at Tis’ The Season Challenge and this is what I came up with.

Oh and everything was from my scrap drawers except the green Christmas Word paper but it is very very old.

CHALLENGES:
1) Use Your Stuff Challenge #147 – Stickers (not letters). The Santa is a clear sticker from Hobby Lobby stuck on white cardstock then cut out. Then pop dotted on the tag. **Thank you Scrapanda (Amanda)  for showing me this challenge site. Love it!**
