Phew, I finally got a chance to stamp some challenges!! I made a card using a color combo a bit unusual for Christmas!
Inspired By 97:
I also used the CASology Cue Card, which was Bell; and the cool sketch from CAS(e) This Sketch:
Of course, I was working from memory and didn’t put the sentiment in quite the right spot, but I still love this:
After seeing Sandy’s sweet card here, I followed her example and masked off an area onto which I wheeled my music in Soft Sky, then added the sentiment from The Sounding Joy in Midnight Muse:
Lastly, I added a diecut bell in gold, some Soft Sky branches and a little shabby bow from my stash of dyed seam binding…I actually had the perfect color! Another Christmas card for my supply!
Cassidy found a plastic model house from the 60s that my grandmother used for a Christmas display…it’s actually for a train set….and insisted that Grampy help her assemble it:
Here, she is telling Grampy that when she gets older, she will put it together without his help! And yes, she is wearing a Halloween shirt…she likes it.
The finished product!
My little engineer! Enjoy your day, and be sure to come back tomorrow for a really cool challenge from Jaydee for the Paper Players!
What a gorgeous Christmas card!
