Happy Christmas - St Nicolas day - Nicecrane - Stella

-
Hello folks!!!  I had promised to share with you the card that I made for my niece using the great digi from Nicecrane design and well life was crazy... but I'm here tonight to share it with you!

So I used an image from this fabulous set that you can find here.
Happy Santa CS - Click Image to Close

So this is for Stella!  I made the sentiment myself with the indications from my SIL.  I just love this image because it really looks like the twins (except that they are both blond... one boy and one girl)

The papers are from MME - Holly Jolly.  I love the vintage feel of this card.  I used some ribbons from my stash.  The charm is also from my stash.  I used some vintage photo distress ink around the edge of some of the papers.

Here's a closer look at the pre-colored digi.  It's really perfect for those faster cards... well this card was not fast because I ended up working on the layout more... but that's the flexibility that it gives you!

Hope you like it!!! And I'm really hoping this will be a great souvenir for my little 1 1/2 year old niece ;)  I know that her mom is keeping all of the cards in a box for them for later!!!  What a great idea... didn't do that for my kids...

I'm entering this in the following challenges:

  1. Robyns fetish challenge blog - vintage style
  2. Crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge - For a child
  3. Crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge2 - Extra challenge for Christmas
  4. My time to craft challenge - Special Christmas - so yes this was made as a very special memory card for my little niece Stella!!!
That's it for this post!!!  I will be back with one more!!!

hugs
