Red and white Christmas
November 14, 2009
This is a nice quick card using stamps that I usually pull out for tags. The set is an old SU set which has been used and used by my family and at Christmas workshops every year since I bought it. I stamped the three images, added a bow to the ornament and punched them out with a 1¼” square punch. I popped them up on stampin’ dimensionals then lined them up on the Merry Moments designer paper. It was tricky to get that sentiment positioned correctly so I pulled out the stamp-a-ma-jig.
Even though I did this a while ago I noticed it fits the CAS challenge on Splitcoast this week which is to use one colour with white. Well technically it doesn’t fit, because I used vanilla not white! Anyway there are some great cards in the CAS40 gallery this week that don’t bend the rules.
Supplies:
Stamps: Holiday Sampler, Fundamental Phrases
Inks: Real Red
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Merry Moments Designer paper, Real Red
Also: Stampin’ Dimensionals

Hi Heather,
What a darling card! I find the color and the design embody the Christmas season and is also such a simple design to mass produce. TFS! Sheila

Eh, Heather, I’d post it to CAS40 anyway. White, cream, what’s the diff? Call me a rebel.
This card is so pretty and crisp and festive! TFS
