CAS-ual Fridays The Challenge - Christmas & Hanukkah


It's The Challenge time again over at CAS-ual Fridays!  This week we are celebrating the holidays by making  cards for Christmas & Hanukkah!!    The challenge is to make a card for one of these holidays.

For my card this week I used the following stamps and dies from CAS-ual Fridays:

And if you love these beautifully detailed snowflakes as much as I do, I'm happy to say they're all on sale!  Just click on the photos above to check them out today!


  For this festive Christmas card I pulled my inspiration from a cute little tree ornament that I found at the dollar store.  I'm not sure why, but this little swirly tree caught my eye and I just had to have it.  I love the sparkly red and green and I had the perfect sour apple sparkle cardstock that would look great on a Christmas card.  Keeping it clean and simple I layered the snowflake by stamping the first two layers in red and then adding some diecut snowflakes on top. 

 For this card I also used the following supplies:
Ink: Rockin' Red, Midnight (Catherine Pooler Designs).  Paper: lipstick red cardstock (Simon Says Stamp), sour apple sparkle cardstock (My Favorite Things), white 140 lb cardstock (Neenah).  Accessories: clear sequins, fun foam.


The little  star snowflake just wasn't enough green for me so I added two thin strips at the bottom of the white panel then popped it up with some fun foam.

Now it's your turn.
I hope you'll play along with us for your chance to win!
