Peeking Santa Scratchie

I needed to find a unique way to gift my kids some cash this Christmas and decided to create a scratchie for them. I used the fabulous Peeking Santa from Mo's Patreon. This was a recent freebie and there are other peeking character in the set if you like this one - an elf and reindeer.

To complete my gifts I ordered scratchie stickers which simply stick over the circles where I have added dollar amounts - and there's only one set of 3 hiding underneath 😉

I hope they like them.

Following Yonder Star

Today I've done an eclipse card using Following Yonder Star from Mo Manning's Patreon page. He was a freebie in October for all paying members, but will be moving to the store where it's planned that the 2 other wise men will join him at some stage.

I've used the background and sentiment that comes with the image to create a simple layout. The eclipse part was created by using a panel die to cut the image. The main part was popped up on 3D foam and the strips were then attached to the card beneath. A simple idea yet effective, although cutting into my coloured up work is always a tad scary!
