AAAAAND ACTION! inspired by a movie challenge from Delicious Doodles

Well hello on this cold, wet and VERY windy day in the midlands, and today ~I have my take on 'HOGFATHER' By Sir Terry Pratchett in card form, using Skully Santa of Delicious doodles

For the background I used a spellbinders embossing folder teamed with red mirri card , matted on a dull gold card, then I mounted my pro marker coloured image on black glitter card once I had cut around the outline. the bauble has been coloured red and then has black glittery embossing powder on it, and the eyes and bauble have also both been attacked with the bottle of glossy accents :)
colours used in the image are cool grey 1-5 and ruby,cardinal, berry and lipstick reds also almond, blush and oatmeal.
for decoration I cut three little gift boxes from a forever friends die set in black tones and made the words 'HO HO HO' to emulate death in the movie. these were also embossed with the black glitter.
there are also three black Samaflora roses in the top corner of the image to finish it off.
I hope very much that you like !
