We had a relaxing weekend, catching a movie (Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief) on demand last night with the kids. It was fun and action-packed! DH, DD, and DS all worked on their pinewood derby cars this weekend, and I had some time to play with paper both yesterday and today!! Yay! It felt so good to just create again, unpressured. Here is a CAS card I came up with today.
I combined several challenges in the making of this card:
- Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge: #34
- Limelight Papercrafts Sketch 64: Ribbon
- The Daily Dare's Twelve Days of Christmas Challenges: Day 1 (DD12DAYS01) K.I.S.S. = "Keep It Simple, Santa" to create Christmas card using a recycled item (a sheer ribbon I saved from the wrappings of a Christmas present from a neighbor), one simple image (the Celebrate the Season snowflake), and a non-traditional Christmas color (navy blue).
- The Daily Dare's Twelve Days of Christmas Challenges: Day 11 (DD12DAYS11) to use snowflakes
Card Recipe:
Stamps: SU So Many Scallops
Paper: SU night of navy, SU whisper white
Ink: SU night of navy
Accessories: SU scallop trim corner and border punches, SU scallop circle punch, recycled sheer ribbon (saved from a Christmas present), Tiny Twinkles, BowEasy

Emily, this is a lovely CAS card. Love the navy and white together.
Very pretty!! I love how you have the snowflake medallion hanging. And what would a snowflake be without a little bling! Thanks so much for playing with us at the SCIC!! We hope you'll join us again sometime!
I love that sentiment piece. Of course, Night of Navy is one of my favorite colors. Very pretty, Emily!
Pretty! I love the CAS look. Thanks so much for playing along at Stampin' Celebration!
That's a great CAS card, Em. You've managed to use that stamp set more than once in the last few months, and it keeps reminding me that I should play with mine more often!
The movie was good, wasn't it? We saw it in the theaters a while back. My 12 YO even made a Percy Jackson "Mii" on our Wii. Funny!
