Distressed Pattern Paper Christmas

This card is another I did with the digital pattern papers from the Artsy Stampers Digitals. This time I chose to use the green distressed design. I also had an already die cut lacy border from Crafter's Companion that I thought would work well with that paper. When it was added it reminded me of a table cloth we once had that was adorning our table for many Christmases.


I stamped a Merry Christmas from a set by Sparkle N Sprinkle (no longer in business) which I thought looked great with it. And, I added some gems along side of it. Also I used some green and red plaid ribbon to add to my design as I thought it dressed it up a lot and that way covered the seam between the pattern paper and the die cut design.

This will be my last entry into the Artsy Stampers Digital Challenge #2-Pattern Paper. I have made several cards this week with this digital set and although I am not really good at digitals I do find ways of making use of them by going to a Word doc. and then fussy cutting my designs. This pattern paper was so lovely I thought it was able to be used on it's own without adding another poinsettia.

Thanks for visiting and I hope your week is going well.

God bless,
Verna

Boy, you are getting very techy with your colored digital papers. This makes for a great Christmas card. Way to go. I just arrived in Florida and now that the house is back in order and cleaned up, it will be on to my craft room today. Yipee!

You couldn't ask for a prettier Christmas card, and so easy! I have to remember to do this with some of my papers. Love the red lacy border. You do just fine with digis, Verna, from what I've seen.
