Now I love Christmas cards don't get me wrong but Christmas cards in June is a little too much for me. It's my brothers birthday on Monday and I always try and think of a fun idea for a card to make for him so when I saw Jo's dare for the Daring Cardmakers this week this idea almost straight away popped into my head.
The little Santa I cut out of a Cosmo Cricket paper tag I had fun browsing through my Christmas stash leftover from last year. I mixed in some other leftover bits and pieces of paper there's Lily Bee, Crate Paper and Bazzill card. The stickers are October Afternoon and Echo Park and Thickers - it's a real mix up!

Oh Leo, your card really made me smile. I am completly with you about christmas cards in June - but you were able to do such a fun take on the dare that it was worth it!
I love your take on this weeks dare and so much detail, especially like the birthday candle!
A genius card - I don't think I've ever seen a birthday card with Santa on it - it's brilliant! Love all the detail.
