Christmas Card

The January Rudolph Days began yesterday and runs until the end of the month.  My card is a CAS card which I think I might batch make using different colours.

I used a Memory Box 'Dazzling Snowflake' die in a snippet of purple card and layered it on a slightly larger snippet of white card.  The layered snowflake is raised up in foam tape and a clear gem put in the middle of the snowflake.  The Woodware sentiment was stamped with Versafine 'Onyx Black'.

The As You Like It Challenge asks for my favourite colour and why.  I've always loved purple as it's such a rich and vibrant colour and I chose it for my bridesmaids' dresses many years ago.

I am joining in the following challenges:

  10. This is so elegant and beautiful Liz and I love the strong purple which stands out so well against the white, and the added gem in the centre of the snowflake plus the lovely sentiment are great finishing touches. x

  11. Gorgeous card Liz! That snowflake die is a stunner, which (shame on me) I rarely use. Love your idea of batch baking a set in different colours - I bet that would put a dent in your snippets! The world is your mussel - or should that be another shellfish altogether?! My Cascadia die arrived from 123 Stitch in the USA - their postage is SO reasonable. I can't wait to set to and use it - have a teenage neighbour whose BD is soon so watch this space! You really are such an enabler - thank goodness I already have the snowflake die!

  18. Yes, definitely a batch bank Liz, its a beautiful star. 😍 and no I'm not going to rush and buy it. I'm naughty with too many NBUS so must use those first!

    Thanks for sharing, and may God bless you and keep you and all whom you love safe and well.
