We did it! We reached the end of the Twelve Weeks of Christmas Series. This series starts way back in October and when I start it, it always seems like Christmas is sooo far away but here we are, in a flash we made it to week 12. Today I'm sharing a really cute box with a really cute Santa! The Santa is made all from die cuts from a few different die sets. I'm completely smitten with this guy! The box is specifically sized for a huge Hershey bar where you can also 'build your own' Santa. I found these bars at my local Walmart. If you can't find these bars, look through your dies and see how you can modify this Santa to fit on a smaller box or even a card.
The hat, face and beard are all done with the Everyday Arches Dies. Circles for his hat, cheeks, nose and mouth are all done with the Stylish Shapes Dies. For the trim of his hat along with his eyes I had to get creative. The trim of his hat is clouds from the Sunrise Sailing Dies. Also, with the Sunrise Sailing Dies are his eyes, the die is actually a bird flying in the distance, I trimmed off one wing and it looks like squinty eyes. Googlie eyes would also be super cute! Unfortunately, the Sunrise Sailing Dies hit the Last Chance List earlier this month and they're gone now. Heartbroken! If you have them you're set, if not the trim and eyes have lots of options. Look through your dies and punches for anything with a scalloped edge for his trim, circles or ovals for his eyes.
Finally, I needed something for his mustache. After searching through my dies, I found the bandana die in the Notes and Totes Dies, it worked perfectly! If you don't have these exact dies, look at what you have that might work. The letters are also die cut-not a single stamp on here. I used the Mini Alphabet Dies.
