Joyeux Noel for CAS Christmas

Hi.  I hope you are enjoying the weekend.

It's time for a new challenge at
CAS Christmas
where we're celebrating our 1st Birthday!
We hope you'll come and help us celebrate.


My dear friend Susan is hosting the challenge this month.

I pulled out this NBUS deer, stamped him with some
black Memento ink and colored him with Copic Markers.

I've stamped the sentiment from the same set and used
copper powder to heat emboss.

I've cut the star from both copper foil and silver glimmer paper.
He looks like he's enjoying the starlight.

I did another card while I had him out.
It's not as CAS but I like the snowy scene.

Our Design Team and our super talented Guest Designer, Chrissie,
have lots of inspiration to share with you.

I hope you'll come help us celebrate at
CAS Christmas.

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Way to make double use of this NBUS deer, Bonnie. Both cards are adorable. Having him admire the star on the first one is so fun. Wonderful scene on the second. xx

Love both versions of your card, Bonnie, but especially the first one - the snow embossing and the framing set off the reindeer perfectly.

He has his nose to the wind and his eyes on the stars. Two fabulous cards featuring your wonderful deer, Bonnie.

That deer is just adorable in his scarf. Both cards are so well done, Bonnie! He looks wonderful popped up in the window with my favorite star topping him off and your scene is gorgeous! I love the sparkle you added to that one!

Brenda said...

Just love both cards but the deer in the circle looking up at the star is so sweet, Bonnie!! Looks like a fun challenge - Happy Bday to CAS Christmas!!

Loll said...

Your reindeer is so sweet, Bonnie! Love how he is looking up at your glittery copper and silver star in the first card. Great colouring with Copics!! And such a pretty design with the circle stitched aperture with falling snow.

Your second card is adorable!! Love this cute winter scene. Great colouring again, my friend! xx

Two great designs and that deer is so adorable. Looking up at the star is a beautiful scene and the copper is gorgeous and makes it shine. Then checking out the snowflakes is so cute. Great cards.

Leslie Miller said...

I absolutely love both your cards! The way the deer is holding his head reminds me of my dog, Wally. He does that. The star die on your first card is beautiful layered in copper and silver.

Two beautiful designs. The sniffing star is my FAVE! What beautiful Copic colouring too.
That double star is special and the glitter on the second brings it all together. Lovely xx

Two pretty cards, Bonnie! Both sweet reindeer are enjoying the beautiful winter sky. I love that you made the starlight by layering the die-cuts of copper foil and silver glimmer paper. It's small but it shines big!
The sparkles of the snow hills, trees, and the stars are so pretty!
And beautiful coloring with Copics!

What a wonderfully colored deer Bonnie! I love how he's got his head back feeling the snow on his nose while he's gazing at the star!

Nance said...

So beautiful, Bonnie! Love that little deer looking up like he's caroling away! Love the snowy scene one too, so serene. I need LOTS of serene right now! LOL XX
