I'm so pleased to see the CAS Christmas Card Challenge has restarted this month. Their first challenge is 'Birds' and I have used a Rare Earth stamp set that I was given a while ago and is perfect for a CAS Christmas card.
To make this card I used:
5.5" x 4.25" white matt card blank
Rare Earth 'Winter Floral Collection' and Clearly Besotted 'Cheerful Christmas' stamps
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail Embossing Powder
Copics - C-1, E31, E33 & R27
Diamond Stickles
Snippet of white matt card
I placed the white card into my MISTI and used black ink to stamp the birds and sentiment before embossing them with clear embossing powder. I then used the largest stitched die to cut the panel. I used Copics to colour the image - E31 and E33 for the birds, R27 for the hat and C-1 to ground the image. I attached the panel to the front of the card blank before adding Diamond Stickles to the hat band and pompom.
I am entering the following challenges:
