Christmas Card Using Cricut Artiste and DS4J Two-wit twooo Digi

Hello fellow bloggers and readers.  I hope everyone is doing well.  I am still having major health challenges and haven't felt like doing much.  I did get this twisted easel card created; which is from a free Digi at Digi Stamps 4 Joy 2014 Christmas Challenge.  Each month you receive a free digi to use for creating a Christmas card.  It is a great way to get a head start on your Christmas cards.  Aren't these owls adorable?  I love owls and they seem to be very popular right now.  You still have a few days to visit DS4J and get this free image; create your card and get it posted or emailed to enter this challenge.  

This card is lighter on the lower half; which you can see on third photo below.

  31. I must live in a bubble. I never noticed owl images for Christmas until this year. I need to get out more. I love the owl image and how you've colored it. And the easel card is a fabulous way to show off the papers and embellishments, too. This is a GREAT color, too. Thanks for joining us at Christmas at Sweet Stampin' this month and hope to see you again Oct. 8 for our new challenge! Hugs, Gail
