Hi everyone - happy summer! We're halfway through July and I'm here to remind you to stay cool by making a Christmas Card for the CAS Christmas Card Challenge!
This month the theme is Nativity.
I again used white and metallic gold as I did on my first challenge card but this one is even more CAS. I die cut the Holy Family and stable shape using the Nativity Die from Sizzix out of white card. I pushed out the white halos and die cut them again out of metallic gold and inserted the gold halos into the white die cut. I layered it over the stable die cut and layered that to a metallic gold stitched circle which is one of the dies in the Noted: Scalloped Square die from PTI which is what I used to cut my card base.
This card measures 3 3/4" x 3 3/4"
Inside I gold embossed a sentiment from the PTI set O Holy Night.

ReplyDeleteI'm very late commenting on the DT CAS Christmas cards as my computer died and it took a while to get a new one and get it up and running! Love that very CAS nativity die - such an artsy look with the bits of gold in the white. Also love the scalloped edges of the card.
