LOL! I don't know if I've ever made a card that is one layer only...if not, here's to this being the first! Have a look:
Isn't this little guy just so cute?? He is from the Whimsie Doodles company, and can be found in their Christmas Greetings set here. Melyssa Connolly draws the cutest characters! I colored him up simply, and added Ice Stickles to the ribbon and bow of the gift. Although I had originally planned just to have this digi on the card, I decided to add a sentiment in the lower right corner as well. Just looks better to me! :)
