St. Nicholas Layers for Christmas

We're still creating with layers for Jingle Belles.  I took my color queue from this week's Sunday Stamps Tranquil Cottage Color  Challenge by layering gorgeous Graphic45 St. Nicholas Collection Papers

The layout is from the Sketch Saturday Challenge and the Believe Sentiment is from Essentials by Ellen Brushstroke Christmas (which I thought paired well with the Santa-theme of the background paper).

I sponged a little Taylored Expressions Pineapple Ink on the punched stars to cover any of the white edges of the paper and add some shading.

I'm also joining Christmas in July at Hiding in my Craft Room and The Crafter's Cafe where they're challenge is Lots of Layers.
