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. Linda is hosting this month and she has chosen ‘Poinsettia’ for our prompt.


Recently, I went on a shopping spree at The Greetery and I used a few of my new goodies for this card. I used traditional colors for the poinsettias, a gold gel pen for the centers, and just for fun, light gray for the berries :) I stamped the sentiment then topped it with clear EP for a lovely shine (too bad it doesn't show on screen).   

My teamies have created some beautiful cards to inspire everyone ~ Come on over to the Challenge Blog to check them out, and play along with us, if you like! You have until the 24th to submit your card and it's a great way to add to your Christmas card stash! I hope to see you there ~ 


Thanks so much for stopping by,






Supplies:
Stamps: The Greetery - Hoop Wreath; Altenew - Warm Blessings (sentiment)
Dies: The Greetery - Hoop Wreath, Catching Snowflakes, Hoop & Fringe die
Misc: Uniball Signo Gold Gel Pen; Pretty Pink Posh - Clear Crystal Gems; Ranger Superfine Detail Clear Embossing Powder

This is so lovely, Barb! The poinsettia wreath goes so well with the catching snowflake die! The clear heat-embossed sentiment stands out and looks so crisp and sharp! Isn't it fun to play with new goodies? :-)

This reminds me of a dream catcher, Barb. And who wouldn't love one decorated with poinsettia for Christmas. Beautiful card.
