Christmas Globe - CAS Christmas Challenge Reminder

Hello Again!

Another post for today.
Today is the halfway mark for the month of January
and for
our monthly challenge at

Christine is our hostess this month.  
She's chosen a wonderful color combo of Blue and Silver.  
I think I had part of my card sitting on my craft table for about three months.  I had created the sentiment die cut back in the fall from watercolored paper.  Then when I got Catherine Pooler's snowglobe die, I cut the inner white glitter globe and adhered the sentiment to it.  Then, it sat and sat and sat.  I just really wasn't inspired as to what to do with it.  Until I got some new silver foil/mirror cardstock and then BAM! it came together!  For a CAS card it should took a long time to create it, didn't it?  LOL

Go see what the rest of the Team has created on the CAS Christmas blog for our reminder round of projects.  All sooo beautiful!  Come link up your own blue/silver Christmas card and get started for next year!

STAMPS: None

Sometimes you just need to walk away... in this case for months! *lol*😂 Way to not give up on that piece and turn it into this beautiful card, Nance. The silver mirror cardstock looks fabulous. xx
