CAS Christmas - Woodland Creatures


Hi Everyone, it's time for CAS Christmas card Challenge and this month our host Lisa wants us to.pull out our Woodland Critters



My first card is a sweet little image from Unity stamps with the two fox cubs in the snow and the snow globe stamp from Indigo blue which I think is retired. You can't see it in the photo but I masked the outside of the globe and used Versamark and glitter embossing powder

The following two cards are to add to my stash with the stencil from Card IO and the stag from Inkadinkadoo. It's a one layer card with the branches framing the stag. The sentiment is from the Unity fox  stamp set.

 This one s a woodsy outdoor style with some snow capped mountains that have been stencilled using one of the Lavinia hills stencils and a Posca pen The sentiment is out of one of the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous sets.


I hope you play along with us at CAS Christmas

That is the most adorable image of the fox cubs in the snow! A perfect fit inside your snow globe. I bet it's beautiful in real life with the glitter embossing powder. Your other two cards with the stag are great - ideal for masculine Christmas cards.

The two fox cubs are ADORABLE, especially inside a snowglobe. Great design, Christine! Two beautiful card made with the lovely stag. The wreath of tree branches frames the image so perfectly. And your snow-capped mountains are beautiful with the whisps of colour in the sky that depic the coldness of the surroundings. Wonderful work, my friend! xx

Three wonderful cards Christine, and I love your two cute little fox cubs within the scene in the snow globe, and lovely and glittery too, and the added snowflakes with the black gem centres finish it perfectly. The second and third are great with that super scene filled deer image and the Card-io tangled tree branches make a terrific frame, and finally the very magical quality of the snow capped mountains and the moody sky too, and finished with a lovely sentiment...three brilliant designs. x

Three fantastic cards Christine. Those sweet little fox cubs in the snow globe and the great masculine stag cards in those winter settings.

Your snow globe card is amazing with the little foxes, Christine! The stag is so elegant in the frame of branches. Stenciling the mountains in sky takes him to a whole new level!

How great to build up your stash with all these critters, I love your two foxes among the snowflakes and falling snow! Wonderful snowglobe!

Leslie Miller said...

Oh, goodness, those foxes are adorable! They look so fluffy and sweet! Your two stag cards are stunning! I'd almost forgotten I have that stamp, so thank you for the reminder. He is magnificent! I think I'll pull him out and admire him again. Wonderful cards, Christine!

Love the black and white and cute little fox cubs on your first card and that amazing stag on the other two. You have created great backgrounds too xx

I somehow missed this post—which is a shame, because all three cards are stunning! But the one that impressed me the most is the deer concealing a mountain landscape. The choice of stamps for all the cards is magnificent, and the way you’ve framed and arranged them is simply brilliant.
hugs,
