I found the coolest (in my opinion!) video while searching for this month's prompt :smitten:
I was wondering how to incorporate Santa images in to my Christmas Carol prompt theme. Probably aren't any church carols ... but I got this tune in my head and found the following :
It combines two of my old faves :
Greg Lake (of Emerson, Lake and Palmer), the first rock concert I ever went to and maybe the best and Ian Anderson (aka Jethro Tull)! We saw him in concert a few times, and actually saw him just a few years ago performing here in FL. He's still good!
... and it was filmed in a church, so it still fits my theme right?!
I hope you enjoy it.

You can use the prompt, or not, but I hope you are able to make some Christmas cards this month and link them up here!

Thanks for the prompt!

Cindi, I enjoyed listening to that song. I have never heard it before. Here is one card I made today. It took a long time because the measurements on the video were wrong and I had to figure it out!

I cased Nora's snowman card. It's uploaded.

I used Cindi's prompt for this one. It was fun.
&... I was a real fan of EL&P (great gate of Kiev) :smitten:

Here is my Father Christmas inspired card, I am not sure if this works or not... I might want to stamp him in a few more colors and try again.

Here's another Santa card. I did it all with masking & coloring.
Sorry. My phone still refuses to link from our gallery. :knuppel2:

Oh yeah ... now I remember Great Gates of Kiev. I think that is one reason I loved EL&P so much. I grew up playing classical music in school. Loved their synthesized version! Haha, I just looked it up on youtube. The synthesizer harks back to the age when computers took up an entire room. It's huge!
Just noticed your card title too, got a big smile out of "I be-leave in Father Christmas"! Thanks for both of your Father Christmas cards.
Nora your cards are so, so cute!
Heidi, Santa looks very cool in blue! I like how you made your own matching papers.
I need to get busy on my own Christmas cards ... yikes, time flies.

Looking forward to seeing what Cindi's October prompt will be. I did a winter card while I had the time.
