Countdown to Christmas - Buffalo Plaid Star

Hi Friends and Happy Thursday!  Today is a quick share featuring one of my CAS Christmas Cards and one I think could be easily mass produced.  It's a countdown to Christmas at my craft table and this style is perfect when you're running short of time.


As I've mentioned before, the CAS style really isn't my "go-to".  I like color and pattern too much but I'll admit this design does appeal to me.  I was inspired by Positively Papercraft by Ann.  She has a You Tube Channel and I love watching her.

This card was so quick and easy.  I die cut a star from Buffalo Plaid patterned paper and silver mirror card.  Layered them, popping the plaid star on foam.  I then stamped and heat embossed the sentiment with fine detail silver powder, backed the focal panel with more mirror card, added silver gems and called this card complete.


I like this so much, I'm going to do something a bit different...still CAS but in Gold.  Thanks for visiting today.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!
