CAS Christmas Card Challenge - Reminder


Hello friends ~ Just a reminder that there is still time to link up your card for the July CAS Christmas Card Challenge. Hideko is hosting this month and she has chosen ‘Sparkle and/or Shine’ for our prompt.


I'm such a fan of MFT's Stylish Snowflakes. For this card, I layered 2 different snowflakes with gold metallic cardstock and added a clear gem to the center. The sentiment was embossed with gold EP and finished with the Greetery's Nordic Frame. I also used gold metallic cardstock for the background.

CAS Christmas Reminder


Hello friends ~ Just a reminder that there is still time to link up your card for the August CAS Christmas Card Challenge. Trina is hosting this month and she has chosen ‘Pine’ for our prompt.



I used a NBUS stamp set from MFT (Iconic Christmas). There are lots of really cute little trees, deer and ornaments in this set, so I'm sure I'll be using it again. I created the background with Distress inks and a white Gelly Roll pen, then spritzed Shimmer Spray to add sparkle to the sky. I also used Grout Grey cardstock for the card base for contrast.

CAS Christmas Card Challenge




Hi there, blog friends! It’s time for the August challenge at CAS Christmas. Our Hostess is the amazing Trina and she has chosen ‘Pine’ for our prompt. We have 2 Guest Designers this month ~ Elizabeth from Paper Sweetness and Lucie from Lucie G Cards.
 




I started by embossing a panel with Richard Garay's Pine Needles EF, then adding my NBUS sentiment from The Greetery. Lastly, I mounted the panel on a red card base and added a few red gems...quick and CAS! Here is a close-up of the embossed panel ~

Reminder - July Challenge at CAS Christmas


Hello friends ~ Just a reminder that there is still time to link up your card for the July CAS Christmas Card Challenge 
 I am hosting this month and I chose ‘Santa' for our prompt.



I love my silhouette stamps and this Santa and reindeer seemed perfect for the prompt. Instead of a snowy night sky, I chose to add a few white clouds and a simple sentiment.

The Man, The Myth, The Legend

Hi there ~
This is my first DT card after several months, and I'm excited to also be hosting the July challenge at CAS Christmas 


 I'm sure you expected to see the man himself, but I decided to add a twist and I used his name and hat for my focal point.


 The alphas are from Altenew. I stacked them x3 with cardstock, then topped them with patterned paper. The puny sentiment is from SSS and I think the hat is Impression Obsession, but I'm not sure.                                                            

We hope you’ll stop by the Challenge Blog and check out all the beautiful Christmas cards by our DT... The challenge ends on the 24th, so you have plenty of time to play along with us...It’s a great way to add some beautiful cards to your Christmas card stash! I hope to see you there ~
