CAS Christmas Card Challenge: Snowflakes

The perfect Christmas Challenge: Snowflake to make multiple cards for my stash!
Thank you Bonnie for hosting this challenge.
The talented Jane (Onions and Paper) is the Guest Designer this month:-)

My Snowflake Card!

I bought this Memory Box "Watching Deer" circle die on our Retreat visit 

to a local BC craft store.  I thought it would be perfect for multiple Christmas cards

for my stash..so perfect that I made 10 cards for my stash:-)

I used Distress Oxide Inks: Fossilized Amber, Shaded Lilac and Blueprint Sketch and

blended onto Strathmore Mixed Media paper using makeup brushes.

I did 10 (3 1/2" x 3") backgrounds.

Next used SSS "Falling Snow" Stencil to add Nuvo Glimmer Paste "Moonstone"

with palette knife to the 10 backgrounds.  

Very important to wash stencil with warm soapy water when done.

Set backgrounds aside to dry away from my work area.

Die cut the "Watching Deer" Die out of SU Whisper White 100# CS.

Placed in MISTI to stamp and heat emboss the PB "Smile All Seasons" sentiment.

Attached backgrounds to back of die cut card fronts using scotch tape

and then attached card fronts to card base and Done:-)

You have until the 24th to play along with the CAS Christmas Card Challenge.

An awesome challenge for adding to your Christmas Card stash!

Enjoy and Hugs...
