CAS Christmas Card Challenge - Warm and Cozy

Hi Everyone, it's time for CAS Christmas Card Challenge and Trina our host has picked warm and cozy as our theme for this month.
Bobby (Bits and Pieces) and the Design team have some beautiful cards for your inspiration.

My Warm and Cozy is this hat, scarf and mitten set from Serendipity stamps which are now sold by Impression Obsession.


I stamped the images using Versafine clair and heat embossed using clear embossing powder. I fussy cut the images and used a black felt tip pen to cover the white edge.
To give some dimension I stamped the scarf on the card and glued the scarf in position, then popped the hat and mits up on foam dots. To whiten up the pompom on the had to used a white POSCA acrylic paint pen.


I'm entering this for the following challenges
Christmas Cards all year Round -Stockings or other Winter Clothing
Watercooler Wednesday - Anything Goes
The Holly and The Ivy - Anything Goes
CAS Watercolour - Monochromatic


Card Recipe

Paper: Watercolour, 110lb White
Ink: Versafine Clair, Ranger Archival
Accessories: MiSTI, Clear Embossing Powder, Watercolour pencils, White Posca acrylic paint pen
