As always, the team votes on creative favorites. You all don't make it easy with so many fabulous choices!
My eyes went straight to the wheelbarrow on the inspiration board, knowing I had a similar Power Poppy stamp. It's called Season's Greenings. I stamped on extra white watercolor paper and colored with Tombow markers and blender.
The wheelbarrow and Santa are two separate stamps. I hand cut Santa and placed him down front to create more of a scene. The background die is Spellbinders Infinity Punch & Pierce Plate. It's not a Christmas die but I liked it for the eyelet-type openings resembling leaves with the green card base peeking through. Festive guy that he is, Santa has decorated the garden with red and gold tinsel ropes. Apparently he loves glitter and that's a good thing because so does the friend I sent this to.
The team has more inspiration for you on the challenge blog, and we'd love to see your Christmas tree creation in the Double D gallery if you have the time. Be merry!

OMG what an awesome creation! The image is so sweet and of course your coloring is perfection! Merry Christmas!
Too adorable! You created such a fun scene with the different dies and stamps. That tinsel rope is the bomb. So cool! And that background cover plate is fabulous. I agree that it works perfectly with the rest of the design. I love the overall vintage feel.
Love how you combined the 2 and made your very own festive scene! He really is a jolly old elf! Love the arch and tinsel die cuts! Merry Merry!
This is the cutest wheelbarrow image I've seen, add a little Santa and you've got a winner. This is adorable, Leslie! The detail in the background die is amazing. I just love the infinity dies! The starry banners across the top are super cute too. So very Merry!!!
Power Poppy sweet image! This card, colored and designed so well makes me smile! Santa is so cute. Just the other day, I decided to put my PP stamps away, and then I looked a bit closer and saw so many possibilities. Just like this beautiful card that you have created.

Very festive, Leslie! Looks like Santa has a green thumb!
This card is so full of joy. Love those trees and your little Santa is definitely working hard. Such a lovely card xx
Your card is just perfect for the season. It reminds me of Vermont where they decorate with so many wheelbarrows with all the greenery and flowers! You set the scene so well with Santa joining in under the stars! We are having Christmas here this weekend, so we are running around like crazy! Wishing you and Rich a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
So cute and sparkly! I'm very happy for you that you have had some time to color. I know how you love to do that, and the results are always amazing.
What a great scene, Leslie, and so beautifully colored with your Tombows and blender! I love how Santa decorated the background and the green peeking through the eyelet background!
Beautiful festive card and stamps, love the scene you created and fabulous die-cut frame.
