Welcome to October and also to the newest CAS Christmas Card Challenge. Marcia is our hostess with the mostest this month and she wants us to use grey and red in our clean and simple creations!
I rummaged through my three boxes of Christmas stamps and dies and pulled out Christmas Critters - an older set from Papertrey Ink that I think I've only used twice - so way past time to ink it up again!
I went REALLY CAS this month - a no layer card accept for the sequins! These are such great colors for Christmas designs.
We are really getting down to the wire here folks, for needing our Christmas cards to be made, so we hope you will get out your red and grey inks and papers and link up your CAS creation over at the CAS Christmas Card Challenge blog! You will find lots of inspiration from the rest of the team as well as our talented (and well known) Guest Designer Darnell!
Stamps: Christmas Critters and Christmas Critters Sentiment Stamp Set - PaperTrey Ink.
Paper: White - PTI
Ink: Pure Poppy, True Black - PTI, Limestone - Altenew
Accessories: Spring Sequins - Honey Bee Stamps.
So cute!
