The Club Scrap Hybrid Digi Holiday kit

I just finished these with the recent WOW Holiday Digi kit from Club Scrap.  It's a combination of digital images and paper and I like adding stickles and other elements to give more dimension.

This is the box and houses:
This is our first Christmas Tree in our "new" home
and a better shot of the house on the tree
And this is a pic of the tree I made for the RV 6 years ago.....ornaments from the right are from Denmark.......a trip I took in 1999

Getting Started on the Holidays

I was looking for a fun card for a forum I belong to.......found the directions for this fun Matchbook Card on Splitcoast Stampers website and used a tree stamp from Michael Strong for the front, as I used this on the Yahoo Michael Strong group forum.  The images on the little box on the inside are from Club Scrap's WOW kit and all the papers from Club Scrap.  I hope to make some of this up for some family and friends.


and this little box is from a new Hybrid kit from Club Scrap..........these make fun little gifts for friends also.
