Hi Friends!
We are having a wintery day here on the East
Coast so, of course, I had to create a few cards- lol!
I decided to create a Clean and Simple (CAS)
Christmas card for my stash and decided to play along with the CAS-ual Fridays CFC190 “All That Glitters” Challenge, the JUGS422 “Anything Goes” Challenge and
the Simon Says Wednesday “Something New” Challenge.
If you have not had a chance to check out the above
challenge sites yet, I hope you will do so- gorgeous inspiration from their
Design Teams as well as their galleries!
To create this card:
1). Using a circle die, die cut a circle in a piece of black
cardstock, de-static the lower portion with an embossing powder tool. Ink and stamp the sentiment from Snowy
Sayings (CAS-ual Fridays Stamps) with Versamark™ ink, apply white embossing
powder and heat set with a heat tool.
2). Trim the panel and mount onto a piece of white cardstock.
3). Die cut a piece of red foil using one of the snowflakes from
the Flurry Fri-Dies (Cas-ual Fridays Stamps). Adhere to the center of the circle with
dimensional foam.
4). Add the 3/8” red satin ribbon bow, wrapping the ends behind
the panel.
5). Mount the entire card front onto the white card base, add a
few rhinestones to finish off the card.

Stamps)

Beautiful! The red really pops off that black and white. Thanks for playing along at Casual Fridays All That Glitters. DTM Lisa
What a gorgeous color combination! The red bow looks like ribbon leftover from wrapping Christmas presents and is perfect! I love the glittery sentiment in white on black. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful creation with everyone at the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge.
