Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Christmas is right around the corner.
(April Fool)
But honestly, it feels like the weeks and months are flying by!
My friend Chrissie (Simply One of a Kind) did some lovely cards last Fall
using stitched stars. I was so impressed that I found some stitch star dies and added
them to my stash. They've finally found their way out of the NBUS box.
I love how they paired up with this plaid paper!

I don't think I needed any help buying those stars, but I haven't used them yet, Bonnie... thanks for the reminder of why I bought them in the first place - they are fabulous! Love the plaid and that little baby glittery one in the middle!
It looks like Christmas outside my door! Bah humbug -much nicer than the words that came out of my mouth first thing this morning.

Very pretty. I like the way you used the plaid paper behind the cutout. I like making Christmas cards all year long and then we have them ready to send out. TFS
I love this! The skewed panels and plaid look fabulous! It’s such a nice, clean design. I sure do wish my creative mind worked like yours does. I have some nesting stars and may try something like this. Thanks for the inspiration.
CAS and the stars look absolutely perfect with the plaid Bonnie! I have a nesting set of star dies too that rarely get used, but they sure come in handy when I do end up using them! AWESOME card my friend! Merry Christmas!! (Well it's looking a lot like Christmas in my neck of the woods! As Michele said...Bah humbug!!) Hugs. :0)
Love this! Clean, crisp and fresh! Great way to use the stars AND the plaid!
Nice, The plaid theme behind gives a warm cottage ambiance, like a log cabin Christmas. xx
Fabulous card!! I love the offset panels, those fabulous stitched stars, and the way you put it all together.
p.s. I agree that the weeks and months are flying by!! It's scary how quickly!
Those stitched stars look fabulous with the plaid background. Great card xx
Such pretty stitched stars Bonnie! love the pretty red plaid under the white! We both joined in on the plaid challenge today! xx
Wonderful layers with the plaid and white, Bonnie - love the glittery stars too!!
the plaid really makes your stars pop ♥
What a stunning card Bonnie - love the drama of the plaid behind the white and the open die cut!
Blessings

Bright white and red plaid -- such a striking combo with the stars, and tilt design!
What a wonderful design Bonnie, and I love the red plaid as the background to the stitched star and great contrast with the white and finished with added silver glitter red and white star embellishments, and the sentiment in black ties in beautifully. x
It seems like such a simple card, Bonnie, but the layering and tilting add so much to the card design.
Love the combination of plaid and stars too Bonnie! Vicky x
love the pop of that plaid with the white ... and the stitching is such a great detail ... so very glad you went Mad for Plaid with us at Jingle Belles.
They are flying by, that's for sure, and I'm not even close to getting ready. Love this card and hooray for using your NBUS!
This is a classic design, Bon, and the plaid and white pair so well together! Love how we enable each other, even if our wallets don't! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Dolly
Great plaid paper and a wonderful design. I love the sparkly center star and the red and white ones adorning the panel.
Sweet ... love your red plaid backing and stars. xx
Love the plaid peeking through the star and that wee bit of sparkle! Terrific card, Bonnie!
You had me at plaid Bonnie and what a striking card. Yes time is flying by so quickly x.
WOW! what a fabulous CAS card design, I love the way the abundance of white makes the bold tartan stand out even more! Fabulous combination of dies as well! Thanks for joining our celebration of plaid at Jingle Belles!
That is a really great card Bonnie. Love how you’ve offset the panels!
So cute! The red plaid stars are so fun.
What an amazing multi-layer card !! I love shifting all the layers, it creates a sense of movement on the card. These stars are beautiful and make a really joyful Christmas card
