CAS - Right as Rain

Penny Black – CAS Christmas

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS Christmas card created with Penny Black products. The thing to remember with CAS cards – they look simple, but in fact, often take more time than less-simple cards. This card is a case in point; stamping the trees took a fair amount of time.

I stamped the tree image in the 30-747 Ornamented stamp set in green and red pigment inks. I dried the trees in between stamping as I have had pigment ink smear.
I cut the panel to 4 1/2″ square.
I die-cut the 51-664 Mirthful letters from white and red cardstock. I filled the open spaces of the white letters with red cardstock and adhered them to the red letters to create a drop-shadow effect.
I added the letters to the center of the stamped panel.

I die-cut the Big Polkas Cover Panel from Polar White cardstock.
I cut circles in red, two shades of green, and light gray with a circle die, slightly larger than the holes in the cover plate.
I taped the circles to the frame on the back.
I heat-embossed the Sentimental Christmas sentiment (I particularly like the font on this set and thought it worked well with the whimsical feel of the card) on red cardstock.
I cut the sentiment with a circle die and matted it with a slightly larger white cardstock circle.

Cardstock: SU Mint Macaron, MFT Poppy Prestige, Reverse Confetti Polar White, SU Tranquil Tide, Taylored Expressions Sea Salt
