CAS Ho! Ho! Ho!

Christmas at Sweet Stampin' is sadly having their last challenge but don't fret, the DT has decided to set up a new Challenge site to be unveiled shortly!

In the meantime, our last challenge will be Clean and Simple (CAS).  Remember the rules, it must be all about Christmas!

I pulled out this Hero Arts rubber stamp that I literally have had for at least a decade.  I heat embossed the image with black embossing powder and used circle die-cuts to layer.

The background was made by using the Cable Knit embossing folder from Stampin' Up!.  I finished it off with baker's twine and there you have CAS!

What's nice about CAS cards is that they are easy to make in multiples - give it a try and remember link your Christmas creation on our Challenge blog!

Thanks for stopping by!

Feature a Sentiment at CASS

Into the month of February already! With a new month comes a new challenge and our theme at Christmas at Sweet Stampin' is "Feature a Sentiment".

I had fun creating this card - in my roaming of Instagram, I came across a card from #mamaelephant and wanted to try out the design.  I'm really happy with how it turned out and it was nice and quick too.

This stamp/die set is  The Big Family of Little Snowman and is so fun to play with.  I used my Cameo to cut out the letters on glitter cardstock and pulled out my snowflake embossing folder for the background.  After I colored up the images I used foam tape to attach everything to the card.

I'm looking forward to making more cards like this featuring different sentiments and different color combos.

I hope to see your creations entered in our challenge!  Have fun and stay warm!
