Christmas card....

So I'm trying really hard to not be a "grinch" this year. I'm just not in the Holiday mood yet. I thought maybe if I made a few Christmas cards that might help me out a bit. I've had this digi image for a few years now. She is one of my favorite images to use for "winter" cards. I colored her with Sharpie & Copic markers. Then I cut her and the fence out. I dug into my stash of scrap papers for everything here except the card base. The big snow flake is from the Dollar Tree. I bought a package that I think had 10 of them in it. Great deal!!! {I also buy them after the holidays for 50% off} I stitched around the back ground papers... yes I dusted of the sewing machine again. I only had to fight with it for 5 minutes before it would work... I'm getting better!! It's hard to see it in the picture but there is a piece of vellum paper on top of the snowflake paper. The Merry Christmas with the snow flake in the center I made on the computer. Then I just added a bow, some gems, a little bit of snow and it's all done!
