Case Me a Christmas Card

Hi there! Today I’m joining my crafty friend, Michelle, for her Case Me a Christmas Card series. We both created cards inspired by one another for the holidays.

SSS-Kaleidoscope Medallion, Reverse From All of Us

I chose the card below, by Michelle, as my inspiration. You can check out her blog post HERE for more information on her card. Of course it was the delicious colors that drew me in to this design.

The new Kaleidoscope Medallion die from the DieCember® release was a perfect fit for this design.

SSS-Kaleidoscope Medallion, Reverse From All of Us

I blended Pawsitively Saturated inks in Sweets, Bubblegum, Cantaloupe, Sunbeam, Surf & Cadette onto white cardstock and then die cut it using a Nested Circle die.

SSS-Kaleidoscope Medallion, Reverse From All of Us

I die cut the Kaleidoscope Medallion with white cardstock and adhere tiny slivers of foam tape to the back of the die cut. Was it a labor of love? Yes. Am I crazy? I do believe I am. Was it worth it? Absolutely! For the sentiment I used one of the Reverse From All of Us Sentiment Strips.

Make sure and check out Michelle’s blog to see more of her fun Case Me a Christmas Card series! Thanks for having me, Michelle & thanks so much for stopping by!
