Di's Digi Stamps Christmas Pressie Mice Card

I've got another Christmas card for you today (a French one this time), featuring Di's Digi Stamps Christmas Pressie Mice digi. I liked the way this card turned out, but it took me a while get it just right. I began coloring with a different paper in mind (I normally color to match my paper), but the larger present's teal ribbon and peach color didn't match quite as well as I thought they would. I tired to bring in some blue and gray and that didn't work either. I gave up and hunted around in my stash 'til I found this peachy Christmas tree Artoz paper and it was spot on! The striped paper is also Artoz.

The other peachy/gold geometric paper is from the magazine Modes & Travaux 2020 Hors-Série Noël paper issue. I pick up this special issue every Christmas; it has such lovely papers! I bought my 2023 copy just last week. You can find it in most places that sell magazines in France or order online HERE.

The teal felt snowflakes I've had for a while now and think I've used them maybe twice – one for this Warm Winter Wishes card and one for this Merry Christmoose card – so I was glad to put them to use, same thing for the rarely used peach dots.
