CAS Christmas March Challenge - merry christmas

Hi everyone,

It's time for a reminder card for the CAS Christmas March Challenge.



It's also our 3rd Birthday Party, so I hope you'll play along and celebrate with us. 



Here's my super simple card:



[How I made the card]

1. Stamped stripes in red on white card stock, and die-cut it in rectangle.

2. Stamped the sentiment in red on white card stock, clear heat-embossed it, and die-cut the card stock in rectangle.

3. Glued a few sequins near the sentiment.

4. Layered and glued the rectangle panels at an angle over the Kraft card base.


Since the red pigment ink for the sentiment and stripes has a tone that's a little light, I used sequins with a similar tone instead of Christmasy metallic red ones.

Check out the challenge blog to see wonderful reminder cards from DT and join the fun birthday party! The link is open until March 24th.

  14. So pretty, Hideko. Such a cool idea and design using these colours. I thought the red stripes was a piece of pattern paper.
