Here's the first card I made with this sketch.
It didn't turn out as well as I'd envisioned it. So I started over. And this is what I ended up with. I like it much better. And you can't get any more CAS (Clean And Simple)!
Be sure to check out the wonderful cards the Design Team has created.
OK, now it's your turn. I can't wait to see what you come up with. Then come on over and share it with us at Merry Monday!

Oh my goodness, Bonnie, I love your first card and the second one you made, too. I must get that snowflake embossing folder. Every time I see you use it, I want it! LOL
ReplyDeleteI love both cards, Bonnie! The silver cord on the red ribbon is so pretty!! Happy Memorial day my friend!

I love both cards, but I vote for the first one as my favorite.
ReplyDeleteGosh, I love both of them!! The shadowy Wise Men make for a powerful image. And the red makes a powerful punch! =D
ReplyDeleteWhoo hooo, a twofer!! Lovely work on both. Great CAS card and that camel scene is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards Are lovely Bonnie,Especially the Red and White. Red Is my fav color!!Beautiful Satin Ribbon!! And I love the CAS sketch!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are wonderful Bonnie, the scene you created with the first card is lovely and the second card is so elegant.
ReplyDeleteI love both cards, but have to admit the red and white stands out, beautiful cards.
ReplyDeleteLove the others I have missed commenting on too.
Both are just beautiful, but do love the look on the second one! Can't beat that red and white combo either.

Bonnie I love them both! The second on is a bit more CAS but the first one is a beautiful Christmas card! Hope you are enjoying the Memorial weekend.
ReplyDeleteI think both cards are lovely. Just got the SU image, and will have to CASE what you did on this one (please! & thank you!). Since red is a fav color, I'm awed by the red & white too, very striking. Don't ask me to pick between these 2 cards though...would be just too hard to do that! TFS
ReplyDeleteBonnie, both creations are gorgeous! But I must agree that I love the red and white one the best. Very "klassy"!
ReplyDeleteBoth are wonderful! I do like the second best as it is so vivid and bright but the first is top notch as well. This sketch is so great and your interpretations are very creative.
ReplyDeleteThat first card really hit me...the scene, the star, the soft colors and most importantly, the message. Look for me to CASE it later!
ReplyDeleteWhile I like the first card, the second one is perfection!! I just love the simplicity and perfect design of it. The silver cord is a wonderful touch in the red ribbon, and brings out the silver ep.
ReplyDeleteBOTH of your cards using this sketch are gorgeous, IMO! :)
ReplyDeleteI ADORE the red card....so clean & crisp, it shouts Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI love one card just as well as the other! The lovely Christmas scene is so nice, but I do love that bold CAS look too. Pretty!
ReplyDeleteWow! Love both Christmas cards! The first card is just perfect! I have that stamp and just am amazed at the your coloring for this gorgeous Christmas card! And, love the background and pop of red for your second card!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are beautiful, Bonnie but that red one stands out to me! I love the red against the crisp white snowny piece! Wonderful job on both!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week! :)
You've done a beautiful job on both cards Bonnie! I can't choose which card I like best!
