Warm Christmas Wishes

Today is a nice sunny November day where I live but the wind has a really cold bite and it's really windy so it isn't the best day to do things outside....or that's the story I'm stickin' with! 
You see, I have this image coloured and it just has to be made in to a card! I'm sure I'm not the only one that has ever been in this position

So today's personal challenge was to use digital paper (something new for me)  along with a digital stamp. I chose to use the N'Ice Friends 2 image, a sentiment from Christmas Time Sentiments and some patterned paper from I the I Dream In Christmas digital paper collection. All of these wonderful products can be found in the newly re opened digital shop at Whimsy Stamps.

First I printed the patterned paper I wanted to use, then I printed my image out and coloured it with alcohol markers. It is cut out with a circle die and placed on a doily die. The sentiment was also printed and cut out with a circle die. Some shimmery ribbon, glitter and sparkly gumdrops are the finishing touches to my card.
