Christmas Skates - Jan's Digi's

 This is my second post for today.................

It's time again for another challenge at Jan's Digital Stamps Challenge.  Once again, we have an Anything Goes challenge  and would love to have you join us.

Also once again I used the pre-colored version of Jan's digi image.  It's called Christmas Skates and using the pre-colored version makes for a quick card ....... and we can always use those at Christmas when there's so much else going on.  I used a VERY, VERY old Nestie die - one of the first ones I probably ever got - to frame out the pair of skates.  The background paper was in my stash and I added some Close to My Heart organza ribbon and a bit of gold twine.

Thanks for stopping by.............and check out Jan's Digi Stamps and enter your card or project.

I love that old Nestie die - it's a great design for those pretty skates and the rich colors and design of the background papers are the perfect background to showcase the image! Gorgeous card!

That Nestie is a great shape! I always used it back in the day. Thanks for reminding me to bring it out again. What's old is new again! That is a beautiful pre-colored image.

Bonnie said...

What a pretty image, Lynn! Love how you've cut it with the pretty shaped die and the patterned paper is so rich and a wonderful contrast!

Gosh, I love that image so much!! I think those pre-colored images would come in handy for the Holidays for sure! I actually hadn't seen that die used in a long time and it's nice to see it again as it looks lovely with your card!! Hope to play along over there soon!

Wonderful card for Christmas. Many people go ice skating during that time of year. Great image and background.

Absolutely gorgeous, Lynn! I love using precoloured digis - many people that receive my cards have no idea (or couldn't care less) if I coloured it myself - they are just happy to receive a handmade card, and that's what matters! Whoever receives this card is going to love it! I do!
