CAS Christmas March Challenge - let it snow

Hi everyone,

It's the start of the CAS Christmas March Challenge, and we're also celebrating our 3rd anniversary!

Our wonderful team leader, Loll (Stamping with Loll), is our host this month, and she chose a fun color theme:



We're happy to have our Guest Designer, Gundi (papierelle). Welcome, Gundi!

There's a party going on to celebrate our 3rd birthday with prizes, so check out the challenge blog for details. 😊


Here's my card with the three colors:


[How I made the card]

1. Die-cut one big square and one small square from craft cardstock.

2. Die-cut a snowflake in the squares. Layered a white die-cut snowflake over the big square.

3. Glued the squares onto the card base.

4. Stamped the sentiment in Distress Oxide Ink and clear heat-embossed it.

5. Added red glitter Stickles to the center of the snowflakes.

6. Die-cut a thin frame and glued it on the card base.


I hope to see your card in the birthday party gallery! You have until March 24th.
