Christmas Card with Digital Goat Image

Hello! Today is the launch of over 10 new digital images at Jessica Lynn Original. Each member of the design team will be featuring inspiration for you on their blogs for the next few days. It was hard to pick which stamp to use first, but this cute Christmas Goat has such a sweet face it finally won me over.

To create this card I started by printing the image and coloring it with Copic markers. Then the image was die cut using a stitched square die by Lil' Inkers. To add some dimension I used white Tulip puffy paint and iridescent loose glitter to make it look like snow under the feet of the goat. All patterned papers are by The Paper Studio and the Merry Christmas sentiment is from a freebie I received years ago. The finishing touches included some Lucky Limeade twine and three snowflake stickers from Jolee's. That's it! I hope you will stop back by tomorrow and check out more inspiration for the digital image launch at Jessica Lynn Original.

This Christmas Card is entered into the following challenges:

• Fab 'n' Funky: Christmas
• Inky Chicks: Christmas in Summer
• QKR Stampede: Christmas in July

Floats Your Goat Birthday Card

Making a handmade card for my dad is getting harder every year. I've done trucks, tractors, monkeys, etc... so this year I'm using a goat with balloons. The sentiment and image by Doodle Pantry crack me up! My dad raises sheep but my mother might say that he acts like an old goat. Hopefully this Floats Your Goat Birthday Card will make him laugh.

The image comes with a colored or non-colored version. I used the colored version to save a little time and die cut it with a stitched circle die by My Favorite Things. The patterned papers were in my scrap bin. Everything was adhered flat and three green sequins were added for a little sparkle.

I'm entering this card is the following challenges:

• Doodle Pantry: Digital Anything Goes 
• Brown Sugar: Anything Goes
• Simply Papercraft: Anything Goes
