CAS Christmas Card Challenge

Hi there, blog friends! It’s time for the February challenge at CAS Christmas. Our Hostess is Christine and she has chosen ‘Winter Scene’ for our prompt. Our Guest Designer is Izzy Scrap.

This is a fun die set that was a freebie from SSS during December. I started this 5x7 card by blending Distress Oxide Inks for the background, then I placed white glitter cardstock behind the stars and spritzed the panel with sheer shimmer spray. I used black metallic cardstock for Santa and his reindeer and added snow with a white marker. Lastly, I used Navy ink for the sentiment, and this card was complete! 

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 ~

Addicted to CAS Challenge - Frosty

Hi there, blog friends! Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS  ~ Stephanie is our Hostess, and she is challenging everyone to create a card using the Code Word ‘Frosty’.

Our Guest Designer is the super talented Julie Beech 

This little snowman is from a PTI set called 'Button Bits'...I stamped him, colored him with Copics and masked him to add the blue sky...then I stamped a few snowdrifts, added the little button and placed him inside the Peek-a-Boo window :) 

We would love to see how the code word ‘Frosty’ inspires you! If you would like to see inspiration from the Design Team, and play along with us, come on over and check out the ATCAS Blog  ~

Fusion Card Challenge - 'Winter'

Hi there blog friends ~ It's time for a new challenge at Fusion and this time our prompt is ‘Winter’. Since I have a new stamp that works perfectly for the sketch, I decided to go with that... 

I need a masculine graduation card and thought this color palette would work well. I flipped the sketch 90 degrees, embossed the starburst and sentiment in gold, and added a thin black border over the card base...Extremely CAS :)

Don't forget the best thing about the Fusion Card Challenge is that you can choose between the sketch and the theme/inspiration photo, or both! My teamies have created some beautiful cards to inspire you, so feel free to stop by the challenge blog and play along with us!
