Hi there, blog friends! It’s time for the September challenge at CAS Christmas. Our Hostess is Colleen and she has chosen ‘Plaid’ for our prompt. Our Guest Designer is Melanie (Cards by Melanie ).
Such a simple card...I used my PTI 'Plaid' cover plate for my front panel and added a sentiment with gold foil cardstock. The cute little holly is from an old PTI set and the red gems are from my stash.
Here's a close-up of that lovely plaid pattern:
We hope you’ll stop by the Challenge Blog and check out all the beautiful Christmas cards by our DT and Guest Designer...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 ~
Supplies:
Dies: MFT - Merry Christmas; PTI - Holly Jolly
Misc: PTI Cover Plate - Picnic Plaid; MFT - Gold Foil cardstock; Red Gems - stash
