CAS Christmas Challenge Reminder - KRAFT, RED & WHITE

Hello friends.  Just a friendly reminder that there's still time to play along with us at the CAS Christmas Challenge and we are looking for Christmas cards using KRAFT, RED & WHITE.


Don't forget that it's our 3RD BIRTHDAY and we're offering prizes this month, so join us in the celebration!!


I went with a very CAS Scandinavian Minimalist look for my card this time, and although VERY simple, I really like the way it turned out!


 I started by die cutting the birch trees using a Gina Marie Designs die and adhering them to the back of a panel that I had die cut an oval out of, trimming off the excess trees.  I adhered this panel to a top folding white card base, and then added my deer and cardinals from PTI's In The Meadow die set.  I did do a bit of ink blending on the edges of the deer with Kraft ink.  I thought about adding a sentiment, but didn't want to take away from the scene, so left the sentiment for the inside.  Like I said earlier, very simple, but I really do like it just the way it is!!

This challenge is open till the 24th, so we hope you'll join along and celebrate with us!  There's lots of beautiful inspiration using the challenge colors of KRAFT, RED & WHITE from our talented DT and our Special GD Gundi, so check it all out right HERE.  

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

  14. I love the CAS Scandinavian Minimalist look of this card, Marcia! The pop of red cardinals on the white-on-white birch tree background is so pretty! Leaving the sentiment for the inside is a wonderful choice to keep the peaceful forest scene intact.
