A CAS and soft Christmas.

Hello my crafty friends,

I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend.

I got some crafting in yesterday and made this card inspired by a few challenges:


This gorgeous Nativity die was a present form the lovely Patti. I saw her use this on her blog and mentioned how much I liked it. The next thing I know it arrives in the post for me. A huge thank you Patti.

I was inspired by the 'soft' challenge at CASology this week. I wanted to use plenty of soft texture so used a base embossed card, a fabric embossed panel of cream card and then the die is actually cut from fabric. I also used the soft colour combo of white and cream-one of my favourite colour combos from CAS cards.

My layout was inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.

I will also enter this into:

Enjoy the rest of your weekend x

    The white and cream look great and the fabric folder was very inspired for the soft-cue. Great CAS card!

    Really soft... The light panal looks like you dropped a thin piece of cloth... Beautiful! Hugs, Gerrina

    Soft and pretty indeed, Sandie - just perfect for the serene nativity scene depicted here too. The cream and white works so well together! I never would have thought of combining those colours in this way! So lovely that you could join us this week too! ;-)

    I don't think I've got any nativity items in my stash. But this is one die I'd love to have myself. I think it's a really special card, elegantly designed.
