A Quick Digi Paper Christmas Card

 


Today I have a quick Christmas card made with a set of free digital papers that I printed up.  I didn't think to take a picture of the materials before starting the card, but here's a picture of the leftovers:

And now, here's a closer look at the card.

Card Front:

I found some card stock in my stash that was nearly a perfect match for the borders on the greeting/focal pieces.  I used it to mat the small print that I used as a background for this card.  I added a couple fussy cut gingerbread men and star with foam tape - cut from the larger print paper.

Inside:

Inside I used more of the small print and plain colored card stock to form borders, and finished the inside by stamping a greeting using some matching distress ink.  The stamps were from Crafter's Companion Compendium sheet called Believe in the Magic.

After posting a picture, I realized that tiny red Jewel Dazzles would be perfect for the buttons on the gingerbread men.  I ended up adding them - along with some green ones for the poinsettia centers.  You can see the finished product at the top of this post.
