Christmas with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps

Hello friends!! Today it is Christmas on my blog with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. Instead of having a Christmas release, we are creating with some of the stamp and die collections that CAS-ual Fridays already carries. Look for specials on some of the Holiday products at the CAS-ual Friday Stamp Store!!

My first card features the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps "Christmas Sparkle" stamp set, along with the "Ornament Tags," "Funky Flakes" and "Noel" Fri-dies.

I started off by smooshing a magenta colored dye ink onto a white piece of card stock that measures 4" by 5 "1/4". When dry, I adhered the panel to the front of a top folding, A2 card.

I then stamped the small dotted circle from "Christmas Sparkle" onto white card stock and embossed with white embossing powder. I die cut the circle with the matching die from "Ornament Tags." I adhered the stamped circle onto my card using foam adhesive.

I used the "Ornament Tags" and the "Noel" Fri-dies to die cut the ornament top and the sentiment, then adhered them to the card front using a liquid adhesive.

I finished the card off by adding a layered snowflake that I die cut out of glitter card stock using the "Funky Flakes Fri-dies." I added a matching sequin in the middle with some Nuvo Crystal drops over the top to give it a little more interest. This card might look complicated but it took me only about a half hour to create!

For my second project, I created a tag that uses the same colors as the card. Again, I used the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps "Christmas Sparkle" stamp set and matching "Ornament Tags" die to make a folded round tag.

I stamped the large circle from the stamp set and embossed it in white. I then used the matching die to die cut it out of the white card stock. I also die cut a folded tag using the same size circle, as well as a backing. While I was die cutting, I decided to die cut two ornament holders out of silver mirror card stock.

Before I adhered the stamped front to the folded circle portion, I stamped the "to" and "from" inside the tag  with gray ink using the "Christmas Sparkle" stamp set.

I then adhered the tag front and back over it, added the die cut top and a bit of diamond glitter glue over the open circle on the front of the tag.

Next I layered a few other snowflakes that I die cut out of pink glitter paper using the "Funky Flakes Fri-dies" and again used a sequin with some Nuvo drops to jazz up the center.

The white and silver ribbon were the last touch added after everything was dried.

Since I was having so much fun I decided to make a second snowflake card and tag with a white and gold color scheme.

For my card, I used CAS-ual Fridays Stamps "Snowy Sayings" and "Funky Flakes Fri-dies" to create my card.

I die cut snowflakes out of gold and white card stock and layered them over a piece of 4" by 5 1/4" white embossed card stock. I heat embossed in gold a sentiment from the "Snowy Sayings" stamp set.

I added some gold twine around the middle and popped the card front over an A2 sized card front that was covered with patterned paper. The last touch was to add some jewels over the snowflake centers and random sequins.

I loved this color scheme so much that I decided to do a matching tag.

First I die cut a tag using the "Tag Buddies Fri-dies" out of white embossed paper. I then used "Christmas Sparkle" stamp set to heat emboss "to" and "from," in gold, onto the back of the tag.

I flipped the tag over and adhered a piece of patterned paper over the middle. Next I die cut and adhered a gold snowflake that I created using the "Funky Flakes Fri-dies." The last touch was to add some ribbon at the top and adhere a gold sequin with a dot of glitter glue in the middle of the snowflake. I cannot wait to use this on a gift!!
