Kraft, Red & White Christmas

Happy Saturday - it's a beautiful day here in Minnesota!! I hope to get out and enjoy it at some point!!

Popping in with a card I've been thinking about for the March CAS Christmas Challenge to use kraft, red & white on a clean & simple Christmas card. Big congrats and Happy 3rd Birthday wishes to CAS Christmas and the entire team!!


Supplies: Paper - Neenah White;
Hero Arts Latte (retired); Paper Studio Holiday
Dies - A Jillian Vance Designs Dot Stitched Rectangle Backdrop;
Stamps - Taylored Expressions Linen Background
Inks - Frayed Burlap Distress Ink & Memento Rhubarb Stalk
Other - Honey Bee gems

I diecut a stitched rectangle and then a matching mask with an oval cut into it. Sponged Distress Ink over the open oval - sorry it's yellowish in the photo but very matching to the kraft cardstock in real life. I stamped the linen texture on to the A2 card base and added my stitched panel (with a thin red mat). Diecut and assembled the flower, then added along the oval. Stamped the sentiment and added some gems - done!! I just love this poinsettia die set and have used it bunches of times since I bought it - thanks to Hero Arts for creating it!!

So glad you visited and I hope you'll stop back tomorrow for my Die Cut Diva post using Sunny Studio slimline products!! Happy crafting!!

    Beautiful, crisp and clean poinsettia card, Linda! Your die-cut poinsettia is gorgeous! I love that you stenciled an oval as a backdrop. The red thin matte gives the card a finished-look. Thank you so much for sharing this beauty with us at CAS Christmas!
