Christmas Card

Alrighty we made it through Monday!!! YAY!  I've got about 1/2 my Christmas shopping done. I just can't shop in August for Christmas presents....first of all I would end up giving it to the person before Christmas and secondly August doesn't feel Christmasy.


I've got 2 cards to share ...I've been digi crazy lately.






I used papers from a Mambi sheets pack. The digi is from Digi Darla. I colored it with my pencils. I added My Craft Spot ribbon.



I continued the paper on the inside with a strip down the side. The sentiment is a stamp from 'Tis the Season - My Craft Spot.




For this card I used kraft cardstock for the base. I used walmart ribbon and some shining accent pieces. This is another Digi Darla image. I colored with my pencils. The inside has the same sentiment as the above pictured card.



My lil girl colored this digi. It's the one I used in yesterday's post. I didn't have a picture of it yet or I would've shared with my card.

When I craft she's always right beside me; it's great. So...when I am coloring she has to have a copy too. Thank goodness once you download a digi you can print more than one....haha.

I think she did a great job. She, of course, did not. She gets mad when she does what we call "scribble scrabble". She can do great, but sometimes gets wild and goes outside of the lines...this makes her mad (she's an over-achieving kindergartener). She doesn't like this picture cause she messed up the scarf. OMGoodness! LOL.

Ah Beckie, Love the Christmassy cards and the energy in your daughters card is brill. Crackin' up at your shopping in August - I'd never be able to save a gift to give that long either. Short attention span :D

great cards!!! I need lessons from you in coloring and blending-yours looks so good and when I color with pencils, well, let's just say it isn't nearly as pretty as yours! Love your little girl's also!
