I decided on an image from Stitchy Bear called Country Snowman. I went for a more CAS design stamping the background card and fussy cutting the image. Not sure I'll ever be able to do true CAS style !!

Splendid card Carole. Reminds me of winters past. Fun snowman. Hope your Christmas was a good one. May the New Year be prosperous and happy. - Jim
ReplyDeleteOh Carole! I totally understand about the CAS style! It's not really what the name implies is it?! lol! There's nothing "simple" about it .. as I want to keep adding things on my cards and I sit there for such a long time just staring at my card! hahahahhahaha!
ReplyDeleteWell, your card is just STUNNING .. love the tinsel at the side of your card .. reminds me of a silver garland! :) Beauuuuutiful!!!
Big Hugs,
Elise
Christmas may have come and gone, but Winter is still with us so what's wrong with a snoman? I love him and the card :o)
