I recently posted a card with a pencil colored English version of this Di's Digi Stamps Christmas Critter Mountain digi (retired). This version has a French sentiment and was eked out with my drying-out-can't-afford-to-refill-them markers. The card-sized frame die is a no-brand type that I really like. It's one of those dies that tends to make just about any digi or paper you use with it look good (e.g. this sunny birthday card).
I was in Basel, Switzerland recently (beautiful town and fantastic Christmas market!) and I don't know why it is, but it seems like the German speaking parts of Switzerland have THE best book/hobby shops. I always go in them, even if I don't speak German (they make me wish I did). In a Bider & Tanner shop I picked up two big origami paper blocks – the paper size is small as are the prints, making them perfect for cards. The paper here is from the EMF 333 Origami Colorful Christmas block. The sentiment was created with DJB Coffee Shoppe Espresso font. Midnight Blue Nuvo Crystal Drops give a bit of bling.
