Peace, Love, Joy to All

Hello All,

Yesterday I finally got to make my last Christmas card. I wanted to use this die but was not sure of what design to use. Luckily a few challenges and a crafty buddy at Time Out Challenges helped inspire here.


I got the layout from the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch where they are celebrating their 200th challenge-thank you for continuing to inspire us each week.

I used the 'space' challenge at CASology also as inspiration-adding lots of white (well kraft here) to give this airy look-every element is even popped up to give more space and this die is an excallent example of how it achieve space in a CAS card.

And finally the distressed edge was inspired by this card by Stephanie.. I have never thought of using a distressed edge on CAS cards but think this really suits the rustic feel of this card-thank you Stephanie for this inspiration x

I will also enter this into:


Have a good weekend my friends x
