CAS Christmas Card Challenge - Winter Scene

Good Afternoon!

It's a new month so there's a new challenge over at 
CAS Christmas Card Challenge!
This month our hostess is Susan!

The theme for this month is Winter Scene.


My card began by making the northern light background using Catherine Pooler inks.  I used a star cutting plate on it to finish the background.  Next, I die cut the trio of stitched trees and glued on top of the background.  Then the double stitched rectangle was added on top along with the stitched label sentiment.  I added a final touch of shimmer inside some of the stars.

Be sure and stop by the CAS Christmas Challenge blog and check out the rest of the Design Team's cards and welcome our October Guest Designer, Lyn!  Then come play along.  Do you have your Christmas cards done?  Christmas is now less than three months away!  Hard to believe isn't it?

Card Recipe:
STAMPS: Sentiment from Christmas Tree Farm (Catherine Pooler Designs).
PAPER: White cardstock (Neenah).
INK: Lemongrass, Flirty Fuchsia, Grape Crush, Suede Shoes, Juniper Mist (Catherine Pooler Inks)
EXTRAS: Stitched label (Kat Scrappiness); Stitched tree die (Avery Elle), Star background-Starry Night Cover Plate (Catherine Pooler Designs); Nuvo Shimmer pen.



CAS Christmas Blessings!

What a beautiful sky you've created, Nance, and that starry coverplate is so perfect for this scene! I love how the crisp white die cuts look against the rich background!

LOVE your northern lights sky, Nance. The colours are so deep and vibrant ... absolutely gorgeous. The die-cut stars really add some bright spots and perfect with your snowcovered trees. Amazing work, Nance! xx
