Last week we drove to Indiana and passed through Winston-Salem where I saw several of these billboards for Neil Sedaka's upcoming concert.  I fell in love with the look of the poster and it became the inspiration for a couple of Christmas cards.

The first one features Santa and his reindeer.  The color scheme came from the poster - pale greenish blue, with kraft, brown and subdued reds for accents.

For this card I used Hero Arts "Winter Trees" and stamped it to make two background panels.  To make it look a little more subdued, I sponged some walnut dye ink over the images to create brown "snow".  The Santa and sleigh, the trees, the pine cones and foliage are all dies from Impression Obsession.  The holly leaves mixed in with the foliage were punched with a very old punch (see detailed image).
