CAS Santa...............

Two challenges inspired me to make this card.
The card had to be Festive, CAS, Santa theme and be on one layer.
Update .... I madeHeadliner at The Paper Players for this card...
Thank you so much absolutely delighted and thrilled x
This is my card.
I masked and used distress inks to blend inside the square.
I die cut the mittens to use as a stencil, using red pigment ink.
I used white puffy paint for the top of the mittens. 
I hadn't used this before and it is fun.
The pegs have been stamped with a very cute stamp and I drew in the clothes line.
I used my dipping pen and white pigment ink for the snow and also stamped a few snowflakes.
The sentiment has been stamped in black ink.

The card is Festive, CAS, Santa Theme and on one layer,
so I would like to enter my card into the two challenges .......
