May CAS Christmas Card Challenge - Mid Month Reminder

 Hi everyone!  I'm here today to remind you there is still time to join in the May CAS Christmas Card Challenge.  Hostess Christine would like us to use Foliage and Berries this month.

Here's my card.
I used the same die cut base that I used for my 1st card this month (Noted: Scalloped Square from PTI)  - all three layers are in the die set.  It creates a 3 3/4" square card. I love this die and use it a lot!
 I die cut the holly with Winter Leaves from Sizzix.  The holly and berries and dots are all cut from glitter cardstock from Michaels.  I also cut the holly out of white fun foam and glued it to the green glittered holly so it pops it up off the card.  
   
You have until 5/24 to link up your Foliage and Berries card!  Please join us at CAS Christmas!




Stamps: Nordic Winter - Waltzingmouse (retired)
Paper: White - PTI, red and green glitter cardstock - Michaels
Ink: Barn Door Archival Distress - Ranger
Accessories: Winter Leaves Thinlit Dies - Sizzix, Noted: Scalloped Square - PTI, white fun foam.

This is so lovely, Julia! The sparkle and the dimension of the holly and berries make the sprig really pop. The three berries under the sentiment are nicely echoing those with the holly.
The scalloped edges are so pretty, and I totally understand how much you love this die. :-)

Such beautiful sparkle from your glitter holly leaves and berries, Julia. The card base with scallop-edge is beautiful and elegant and looks amazing with the bright green and red from your sprig. xx

Love the holly cut from glitter cs! Perfect Christmas sparkle! And so great to see the mixture of circle, square, and scalloped edges while still having a CAS card.
