CAS Christmas Card Challenge for April is hosted by the very CAS talented Trina! She is asking us to use Rainbow colors on our CAS Christmas Cards. There are awesome cards by the Design Team and Guest Designer, Izzy. Be sure and check out this fun challenge and add to your Christmas Card Stash!
Here is my CAS Rainbow Card. Enjoy!
I am always so inspired by Trina's Phamtastic Design very Clean and Simple Christmas Card Designs.
Much to my surprise...I was thrilled and pleased to create a very CAS Christmas Card😊
Thank you Trina for always inspiring me and hosting the creative CAS April challenge.
I found a beautiful metallic shiny Magical's background in my stash. I used several Magicals powders that I reconstituted with water, but I did not write down the colors. I Die cut it using SSS Winter Trees Die. I used scotch tape to keep the pieces attached then die cut a piece of MM paper and attached to the Magical's trees for added dimension. Next set aside the rainbow colored trees.
Then die cut the CUTplorations Stitched Snow Hills out of SU Basic White Thick 100# cardstock.
Attached snow hills to SU 100# card base. Stamped STAMPlorations Christmas Joy sentiments and then attached the die cut trees and Done! QCAS design😊
You still have until the 24th to play along with the CAS Christmas Card Challenge.
Love and Hugs

I love this design, Nancy and think I have a similar stamp. Love the little bit of bright color against the white. This one also looks fun to do! Beautiful card!

This is stunning, Nancy. I love the mix of colors and a gorgeous, peaceful scene.
ReplyDeleteOooh that Magicals background piece is so beautiful! Brilliant idea to die cut the row of trees from it.

THANK YOU for making my day with your kind compliment!

ReplyDeleteLove your artsy trees and stitched hill. Great Christmas card.
ReplyDeleteI love this CAS rainbow Christmas card, Nancy! The metallic rainbow trees are gorgeous and unique!! You are so clever to use Magicals this way. I would have never thought of that.

ReplyDeleteNancy, this is just, well, magical! I love the effect of the shimmery trees and love the way you attached them to a white on white background. Time has really run away with me this month - all these challenges I wanted to join in with! Do you get this? Hope you are getting lots of outdoors time as well as time in the craft room. Sending hugs, Vicky x
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant and so perfectly CAS. I must remember to check out my backgrounds folder when I want to die-cut an image as there is a lot in there and it always feels good to use something up. Well done xx

Happy to hear you have your 1st vaccine. We get our 1st vaccine tomorrow..May 11 and our 2nd June 10th. Can't wait. We are doing fine and lots of gardening to do now. So many beautiful blooms from our plants and flowering trees. Love this time of year. I don't know how you manage with your pre-school, your own crafting and keeping up at home. Take care and enjoy the beautiful Springtime. Love and hugs...Nancy
