Christmas Decor

Here is a gift idea for the person on your list who loves snowmen...

Now you may recognize this little guy from a card I made a couple weeks ago.  I really liked him combined with the Simple Stories paper, so I decided to make him into something more permanent than a card.  This is a framed piece that I plan on giving as a gift.  No worries though, I bought 2 frames and have another snowman ready to go - I think I need one of these for myself too :>) 

See the little birds - this is why I LOVE digis! I took the bird the snowman is holding and resized him (or her) smaller, plus flipped some. 

Here are the challenges my project is for:
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...That's the Raise the Bar challenge #86.  Check out the post - they are in search of DT members!
Paper Sundaes Challenge #98 - Sundae Bar - my toppings for this week are red and stitching.
Wee Memories Challenge 78 - Free For All

Thanks for stopping by!!!
Smiles,
Julie
