ELVIS WESLEY MOOSE W/SNOWMAN BY POLKADOODLES --DIGI CHOOSDAY WEEK 30 -- JULY 26, 2022

 Hello friends, and welcome back to my blog!  Today I have a card for you for Week 30 at Digi Choosday, where Team B is celebrating Christmas in July:

I used this super cute Elvis Wesley Moose w/ Snowman (pre-colored) image and this pretty green plaid paper from the Elvis Wesley Moose themed papers to make this simple card.  Both the image and the patterned paper are matted with an olive green cardstock from my huge stash of Recollections cardstock, but the greens didn't quite match the patterned paper as I had hoped.  So, I pulled out my Forest Moss oxide ink and a foam blending tool to darken the edges of the 5.25" square mat layer, and the Spellbinders Lacey Square die cut mat layer.  That created the perfect match!  For the sentiment, I grabbed the Honey Bee Stamps Bitty Buzzwords:  Holidays stamp set and found that "merry" and "wishes" would fit perfectly in the lower right corner of the image panel.  I used the same Forest Moss oxide ink and my MISTI for the stamping.  I think this card turned out super sweet!
