Piles of Fun


This is my favorite color combination for Christmas cards. I don't know why blue and white are so eye-catching to me. You are not going to believe how easy it is to make this card. I am using a digi stamp from Doodle Pantry's new set called Snowman Pile-Up. This entire card was made digitally by combining the COLORED versions of the image, background (from the same set) and the sentiment. This was so fun and quick. No coloring, no cutting...just printing on a color printer. I then layered the printed image onto Pacific Point and Whisper White card stock from Stampin' Up! and added a white snowflake and brad from my stash.


I am entering this card in the following challenges:

  5. You made it look totally yours even though it was all digital. Your blending of paper and images was spot on. The top snowman looks a little "star gaze". Perhaps he had a extra nip of Christmas cheer....haha
