CAS Christmas April 2020 Reminder Post - Christmas Song

Hello friends.  Just a friendly reminder that there's still time to play along with the CAS Christmas Challenge where this month we are looking for Christmas cards with a CHRISTMAS SONG theme.


My card came together so quickly with the help of a die that was gifted to me by my sweet friend Bobby and a piece of cardstock in my box of backgrounds that I had used Brushos on.  Take a look...


The ornament die is from Gina Marie Designs, and I used the outline die to cut out the Brushos piece and then used gold mirror cardstock to cut out the JOY TO THE WORLD (another of my favorite Christmas carols!) and the top piece of the ornament.  I thought it was so cool that the Brushos piece in the greens and blues resembled the earth...I mean how appropriate for this song title!!  I used SU!'s Pine Bough embossing folder for my white background, and adhered both to a white card base.


Lots of beautiful inspiration from the DT and from cards already in the gallery, so check them all out right HERE and play along with us...you'll be so glad you got a head start with your Christmas cards come December!!  This challenge is open till the 24th.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

I'm so glad you love the die, Marcia, and the Brusho panel was perfect for the ornament.

Love the beautiful subtle white on white of the fir branches on the background. A great contrast to the lovely shades of green brushos on the ornament. Gorgeous sentiment die!

Lovely white on white embossing, Marcia ... and a gorgeous colour combo ... the gold is wonderful with the soft brusho greens and blues! Hugs, Anita :)
