CAS Christmas Birds

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I am so happy to see that my dear friend Loll has brought back the
CAS Christmas Challenge!


I was so excited that I made two cards with this new to me Alex Siberia set.

First up, I also used a NBUS Molded Frame embossing folder.

I die cut the bird and greenery from mixed media paper and used Distress Re-inkers
to color the bird and Twi-markers and my waterbrush for the greenery.  
The berries were punched from a scrap of red cardstock.


This time I die cut the bird from Real Red cardstock and sponged a darker
red on the edges.  The leaves were colored with a sponge dauber and Distress Ink.

I die cut a label and used a pierced cover plate die with a frame to
mount this one.  Kind of the same but different and a good addition
to my Christmas stash.

Challenges:
ABC Christmas - J is for Just Enough (CAS)
NBUS #87 - Never Before Used Schtuff - Bird die

Happy Valentine's Day

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I wish all of you a sweet day and that you feel loved.


I had some more velvet and gold hearts and decided to use them all up at once.
Since they were small, it wasn't hard to do.  The embossed background was in the
UFO pile that had been accumulating since fall.

And another made from a past calendar page....


Leaving you with happy wishes and thanks for the love you share with me
in your comments.
