Hi everyone,
I'm excited to host this month's challenge at CAS Christmas!
I chose Sparkle and/or Shine as the prompt. ✨✨✨ You can make any clean and simple Christmas card with sparkle/shine element(s).
We're happy to have a wonderful Guest Designer, JoAnn (Crafty Nana's Blog). Welcome, JoAnn!
Here's my simple card:
[How I made the card]
1. Die-cut the stag, the tree, and the star from double-sided adhesive backed white cardstock.
2. Adhered the die-cuts onto a piece of light blue glitter paper.
3. Stamped stripes in red on a piece of white cardstock and trimmed it to a little bigger than the glitter panel.
4. Glued the glitter panel onto the striped panel.
5. Glued the entire panel onto the card base.

It's easy to make a Christmas card with sparkle/shine, but I know it's difficult to take a photo of your sparkling/shining beautiful card. It's just that we all have to be very imaginative when we look at pictures of cards on the challenge blog and gallery. 😊
Please check out our challenge blog for more inspirations. Looking forward to seeing your card in the gallery!
Hideko, your cards are always so elegant, and this is truly beautiful. Love the white images on the light blue glitter paper and the red and white frame.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. The blue glitter paper background makes the white die cuts pop. Love your card.
ReplyDeleteWhat you call simple is simply stunning, Hideko! LOve the sparkle of your glittery ice-blue paper. A somewhat Nordic design which is one I think exemplifies the CAS-ness of Christmas better than many!

Wow Hideko! LOVE that light blue glitter paper and your beautiful outline die cuts - so pretty in white against the blue - and the red stripes just peeking around the edges serve to define the edge as well as add a pop of color! A lovely challenge this month! xx
