Every Blessing with CASE-ing Christmas

Hello Crafters,

Wow, I can't believe it is already the beginning of October.  Time has been moving quickly lately.  It is time for another CASE-ing Christmas post.  Here is my take on Asha's card.

 

I chose to work with the colors as inspiration by using Night of Navy, Soft Sky and Gold foil and embossing.  Instead of a church I chose to use a symbol of the Magic of Season by using a scene of shepherds looking at the Christmas star.  I also chose to use the Allegro embossing folder by Cuttlebug to give the illusion of the Hallelujah chorus.  I had this card idea bouncing around in my head for weeks and it came out just as I had envisioned ... 'I love it when a plan comes together!'  Now here is Asha's card we were to CASE.

Now it is your turn to come up with a card CASE-ing Asha's lovely card.  Be sure and get your entry in by October 23rd to be included in our 'Christmas' drawing on October 25th.

Make a Wish in Red

Hello Crafty Friends,

Happy Wednesday!  I like the middle of the week.  I have another quick card to share with you.  When this stamp set (Perfect Pennants) showed up in the 2014 Occasions catalog, I knew I had to have it and the matching framelits.  This is a CASED (Copy and Share Everything), but I did not record and can't remember who I cased this from.  I did change it a bit as I did not have the ribbon the creator used.  Here is my version.

Here are the deets.  Again, all products are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise stated.
Stamp set:  Petite Petals (Wood #133152 or Clear Mount #133155) and Perfect Pennants (Wood #133227 or Clear Mount #133230)
Paper:  Real Red (#102482), Whisper White (#100730) and Fresh Prints DSP Stack (retired)
Ink:  Coastal Cabana (#131175) and Real Red (#126949)
Misc:  Banner Framelits (#132173), Petites Petal punch (#133322), 1/2" Circle punch (#119869), Brights Candy Dots (#130931) and Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430)

Here is another card using the same design with different papers and Glitter Glue (JoAnn's).

This card is entered in the following challenge(s):
Catered Crop - Seeing Red
Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge - #48 - Anything Goes with a Twist - use some RED
