MDS-D 002 Comfort & Peace Digital Card

This month’s theme for Sylvia’s Christmas Card Challenge for this month is Natural Christmas.  We made a card similar to this at our last Workshop hosted by Joanne.  I decided to try it digitally as best I could.  Now, Joanne says she usually snoops around the web for ideas for her cards – I didn’t ask her if this was a ‘copy’ of someone’s card or if it was her original idea.

Paper: Garden Green (card); Frosted Lodge 4 and 6.

Stamps: First Edition – text background (Black – mat Cherry Cobbler); Christmas Lodge – tree (White); Wishes and Greetings – comfort (Garden Green); Torn Edges (Garden Green and Chocolate Chip).

Punches: Square (Very Vanilla); Oval (Cherry Cobbler – opacity to 40); Designer Label (White).

Embellishments: Round Buttons (Garden Green); Bakers Twine (Cherry Cobbler); Brads (Silver).

Total Christmas Cards for 2011;
January = 1, February = 6, March = 5, April = 5, May= 6. June = 4, July = 5, August = 4 , September = 4, October = 1, making a total of 41 cards so far!  Thanks Sylvia for keeping me going!
