January CAS Christmas Card Challenge Reminder!

 Hi all - I'm here to remind you all that you still have time to join in on the January CAS Christmas Card challenge!  The link is open until 1/24/22.  I am the host this month and I want to see everyone use Silver and Gold on their CAS Christmas card!

It's SO hard to photograph metallic paper!   For my reminder card I used the same Alleluia die I used on my first card but this time I did use the Shadow die behind the word.  The top and bottom alleluia's are gold word and silver shadow and the middle alleluia is silver word and gold shadow.   I embossed the white background with Weathered Embossing folder from Taylored Expressions, just to give it some clean texture!

So please link up your silver and gold CAS Christmas cards over at the CAS Christmas Card Challenge blog!  We can't wait to see what you create!



Paper: White - PTI, Kraft Stock Metallic paper pad - Tim Holtz/Idea-ology.
Accessories: Alleluia Word and Shadow Die - Simon Says Stamp, glue pen.

Such a creative way of using silver and gold, Julia. Love the shadows being the opposite metallic. Lots of fabulous texture with your dry embossed background. Thanks again for hosting this really fun challenge! xx

Gorgeous card with the silver and gold sentiment die-cuts, Julia! It's a great idea to alternate the metallic colors for the die-cuts and the shadows. The background texture is subtle but adds so much interest to the card. Thank you for hosting this fun challenge!

Love the way you alternated the gold and silver on the sentiments. They look beautiful set against the textured background.
