Hi everyone. Today I have a quick post with a CAS Christmas card. I used a piece of smooshed Lindy magicals from my stash for the background. Tore a piece of white card to create my snowhill, and used two trees (also from my stash) that I had made with alcohol inks on acetate; diecutting from
Fir Trees (Impression Obsession). To finish, I stamped a sentiment from
Love Bug Christmas (Unity) using Peacock Feathers distress ink that matches the colour of the sky pretty well.
Close-up ...
I'm sending this card over to a few Christmas challenges.

Beautiful Magicals background for your die cut trees out of alcohol ink stash background. How fun to make a QCAS Christmas card using beautiful backgrounds from your stash. You make me want to create a few QCAS Christmas Cards from my stash, my friend. TFS and always inspiring me. Love and Hugs..Nancy
I'll bet that icy sky shimmers like crazy. Lovely way to sent Christmas greetings.
It must be really shimmery with the magicals background and the sheen of the AI / acetate trees. A perfect CAS Christmas card.
Beautiful card, Loll. Gorgeous background for your lovely trees. xx
So beautiful.

What a bright and beautiful look to your card Loll, and love the Magicals turquoise sky, and the torn card makes wonderful snow hills, and the trees cut from a piece of alcohol inked card looks fabulous..a great sentiment too. x
Such a pretty background from those glorious magicals and what fabulous glossy trees. A great idea to use the acetate and the alcohol inks for the trees Loll x.
hello mf. So sorry I haven't been over for a visit. I am feeling pretty overwhelmed with all I am doing these days. My 5 littles keep me hopping too.
I hope you are doing well in your part of Canada. I'm sure you know how poorly we are doing here in Ontario. ugh. My hubby and I did get our first shot of Pfizer the other day and now we wait for 4 months to get the next one.
Anyways....beautiful card. I just can't wrap my head around making any holiday cards right now. Good on you though!!
take care, blessings,
xx Karen

The magicals made a lovely sky for those shiny trees. Very pretty, Loll.
That smooshed piece makes a perfect sky and the trees are a wonderful contrast! Such a pretty, snowy scene, my friend!
A beautiful way to use leftovers, Loll. The sky is gorgeous.
Gorgeous, love the shine on the trees xx

How peaceful is your winter scene. I love the blue of the sky and the color of sentiment. I'm still learning from you that sentiment doesn't have to be black
xx
the swirls of green AI's look wonderful on acetate, perfect for your die cut trees. Love the card:)
Oh! The glossy trees against the shimmery background -- divine! Can't beat the colors or the combination of techniques. Love!
You created a lovely winter scene, Loll! I can imagine the pretty shimmer of the Magical blue sky, and I LOVE the AI-on-acetate trees! Their colors, visual texture, and shine are so beautiful! Great color match of the sentiment and the sky!
