CAS Winter Blues

My card today is for the CAS-ual Fridays CFC79 challenge "Winter Blues", and it's also for the brand new Addicted to CAS challenge #1 which is "Snow."
For my card I used a beautiful blue cardstock from GinaK along with a Memory Box Frostyville border die, and then embossed it with a CB snow ef. The sentiment panel was done with a SB grommet tag die and the silver sentiment and snowflakes are stickers.



Wishing you a wonderful weekend, and thanks for stopping by!

Carol

Hi Carol, This is a beautiful shade of blue from GKD. I also love that border punch and your embossing. I was planning on incorporating these two challenges also. I'll try and get to it sometime this afternoon. Have a great weekend.

Hi Carol. Gorgeous card. What a fabulous idea to cut out the boarder and then emboss the card. Great way to get the most out of the dies. Inspiring! Thank you for joining in the Addicted to CAS challenge this week.
