Sweet as Candy

Here's a more traditional Christmas card, at least the colors anyway. I used the Girl Elf image from KLM Digital Designs. Isn't she sweet? I used different scrap pieces of designer paper for this one. I have a lot of it and really need to start working through it rather than cutting or buying more and more. Of course that won't happen but I do love the idea. I still haven't finished my Christmas cards yet and am starting to get a little anxious about it. Lots to do before Christmas and time is running out. I know I'll get it done it's just hard making the same card over and over again. Next year everyone is getting something different. Before I forget this week's Digital Tuesday Challenge is to make a Christmas card with a Christmas song or psalm in mind. Mine doesn't really follow those guidelines...mum's the word.

Santa and Friends

Still playing with Christmas images. Although I love using non-traditional colors for holiday cards I do get in the red and green mood at times. Its such a classic color combination for Christmas. I love how bright and cheery they look. I used my Santa and Friends image from KLM Digital Designs for this one. I thought I should work in a couple of techniques here and there so I chose spotlighting for this one. I think it places more focus on that cute Santa image and to be honest, it was less work too. Be sure to check out the KLM site to see the new releases for December. They are cute!
