Playing Catch Up

Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful. Time spent with our family was very special. We had the twins and their Mom with us so it was a pretty busy time. Those two can really keep you hopping. But we had lots of fun! So I am now playing catch up with the challenge over at Beccy's Place. Day 22 is to CASE one of your earlier cards. The card I chose is from November 2014. I'm not sure if it's one I entered in Beccy's challenge that year or not. Here is the card I am casing.

And here's what I did for a new card.

I still used the plaid background. I love plaid! But I added black card stock for layering to make the colors pop. The image is from Beccy's Place called The Big Guy Digital Stamps. The sentiment is from the same set. All the die cuts: the plaid paper (stitched edges), the tag and the star are all from MFT Blueprints 13. I punched a hole with one of my hole punches and tied some ribbon at the top of the tag. The star die cut I edged with Fossilized Amber distress ink before adhering to the tag. I still kept it fairly simple. I am entering these challenges:

• Beccy's Place A Month of Holiday Cards: Day 22 CASE one of your own cards.
• Outlawz Twisted Thursday: plaid
• Penny's Challenge: anything goes
• Crafty Hazelnut Christmas challenge: anything goes
• Winter Wonderland: Christmas/Winter People

That may be all I get accomplished today. We have another event this evening. Tomorrow I hope to get more done. I'm still behind three cards. Have a super weekend.
