CAS Christmas - July 2026 - Snowman

 Today the July CAS Christmas Challenge has been posted over at the CAS Christmas Blog!

Lin is our DT hostess for the challenge this month and she wants to see snowmen on our CAS card designs.

I was happy to get out this cute stamp from Colorado Craft that I've had for a few years and have never used yet?!!   I stamped the image in black and colored some parts with Copics.  I stamped the sentiment from Paper Trey Ink and then I embossed the background with a pierced cover plate.  

I made 4 of this card while I had all the supplies out!

This stamp set comes with two snowman/bunny images so, while I had all the supplies out, I made 4 cards using the second image as well!  

I actually used this 2nd stamp from the set on my reminder DT CAS Christmas card in June 2021! 

See it here!

Eight more Christmas cards for my Christmas 2026 box!

We'd love to see your CAS Christmas card inspired by Snowman!  Please link your creation up over at CAS Christmas so we all can see!

This challenge ends on July 31st.

These images make me giggle like a 5-year-old, sis! Thank you for that! Actually, I can't believe I didn't buy this set. I love how you used the cover plate snowflakes for the background! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! And go you for doing four of each design!! Hugs, Darnell

I do love CCC. It's so nice to make extra cards when you have your supplies out. These are so cute. [Bunny]

Both cards are so adorable, Julia!
Adding the pierced snowflakes to the background is such a great idea! I can see that pierced details are subtle but they definitely give the second card a fresh new look compared to your 2021 card. Hideko
