October CAS Christmas Card Challenge

Hi there, blog friends! It’s time for the October challenge at CAS Christmas. Our Hostess is Marsha and she has chosen ‘Gray & Red’ for our prompt. Our Guest Designer is Darnell.

I fell in love with this cute little Santa/Chimney die, but it was a real challenge to pair it with alphas that would work...this set turned out a bit wonky, but fun to have a tiny image with tall skinny alphas :) I also dry embossed a piece of stone gray cardstock as a background for the Santa...here's a close-up:

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 ~

CAS Christmas Card Challenge ~ Reminder

Hello friends ~ Just a reminder that there is still time to link up your card for the March CAS Christmas Card Challenge. Loll is hosting this month and she has chosen ‘Kraft, Red & White’ for our prompt.

I started by embossing a panel of Kraft cardstock for texture. After I die cut the wreath and sentiment, I added a few red gems and that was it! 

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 don’t forget we are celebrating our 3rd anniversary and there are prizes for the winner, top 3 designs, and a random draw! I hope to see you there ~
