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.

Hello Crafters,

The wonderful blessing of our Savior’s birth is the reason for this season of Christmas. I love the stamp used for this card because it is the depiction of the birth of our Savior.

Although this picture seems a little ‘cloudy’, it sparkles abundantly in person. This is the first time that I have used Iridescent Ice Stampin’ Emboss Powder. It took me three tries to get it just right. I am so pleased with the effect.
