Little town

Like I said in this blog, kit is never too early to start on next year's holiday cards. I am continuing to play along at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. 

 

As you can see the theme is "little town". The perfect opportunity to use all those little house dies, that I have no idea who designed them. This card was inspired by a card I came across on the net and fit the brief for the  52 Christmas Card Throwdown perfectly.

I just notice d something that is off on my photograph. Can any of you see what it is?

You have till Friday evening to play along at 52 Christmas Throwdown. Check out what the DT has to inspire you.

 

Home sweet home

 

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!! Yay!! The weekend is upon us! Today starts a new challenge at CAS on Friday! 

The theme this week is:

NEW HOME

This was a bit tough for me. I had to find a stamp hat would fit the challenge. I dug deep and found an old wood stamp that fit the build.

You have two weeks to join us in our "new house" challenge at CAS on Friday!

Home for Christmas

Wow!! My creative mojo has been on overdrive. I think it is 4 years of only being able to create on the rare occasion. Today's card is again inspired by the design team call at The Rainbow Card Challenge. Check out the challenge if you are interested in being at the start of something that is really going to be different.

I decided to show Mynn that I am not only a one trick pony, doing only CAS cute and whimsical. I can do artsy when I want to- but with a CAS touch.

Today color scheme is red. I used a bunch of new stuff that I have gotten in the past few months. The snow panel is from the new collection at Ellen Hutson. the rest of the card is from Ellen also. The wee house dies are from the Home&Hearth set by Julie Ebersole that I cut from various papers. the saying and the path from the house are from Over the River. 

You know how you look at card a million times and think it is perfect, but then you come back that millioneth and one tine and realize it it missing something. That is what happened here. I kept looking and tried to figure out what was missing. Guess what it was? The heart on the white house. It tied the whole card together. Often it is those teeny tiny touches that make all the difference.

Go check out The Rainbow Card Challenge.  Throw your hat in the ring.
