2 Christmas Cards (and 2 freebies!)

Hey folks,

Today I'm sharing 2 cards that incorporate a painting I did a few years ago.  I had scanned it in, then edited/cleaned up the image, resized it, and printed it out onto cardstock! From there, it was fun to add some stamping and embellishments.

I added a bunch of rhinestones to the tree, stamped the sentiment, then went crazy with the Wink of Stella glitter marker!

I love how this card turned out, so I went back into Photoshop, and edited out the girl- leaving just the tree image.  Here's card number 2:

It's a bit hard to see, but I placed a pearl at the top of the tree.  I also added some glittery die cut birds, a stamped sentiment, and of course- more Wink of Stella! :)

(Cath...do these cards count for the Color Media challenge, since I painted the originals?)

As a special gift to you, I'm offering both versions of the painting that you can download and use as you wish!  Just right-click on the pics below to save them to your computer.  You can use them on a card like I did here, or make an 8.5x11 print...or whatever! (the files should print well that size at 300dpi).  I only ask that if you post your project somewhere, link back to this post. Thanks!

PS. Would you guys be interested in other downloads like this?  (I'm not sure if anyone out there would actually use them). Thanks!
