Today’s featured new CAS-ual Friday stamp set is called Merry Kiss-mas. As soon as I saw the little gifts, I knew I wanted to line them up and dress them up with patterned paper.
I used my favorite Christmas Paper Pack Carta Bella’s Merry & Bright for that. The card base is a 5 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock folded in half. Five presents were stamped in the center of the card with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
The bottom right corner was rounded and a sentiment was stamped right under the presents. Don’t you just love that font? Three rhinestones from Sleek Strips Silver Rhinestones next of the sentiment finish off the card. Now this is one quick Christmas card.
For my second card I had to use Debby Hughes amazing layout again. I can see this becoming one of my go to sketches for CAS cards. For this one I started by cutting the edge of a 3″ x 5 1/2″ piece of white cardstock with the Notebook Edge Die-namics die. The mistletoe image was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. It was colored with Copic Markers (G24, G28) and Liquid Pearls were added to create the berries.
The long thin sentiment was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink along the notebook edge before red ribbon was tied around the top of the layers. The bow was topped off with a button, tied on with silver cord. The layers were adhered to the card base, a 3 1/2″ x 11″ piece of Kraft cardstock folded in half. The bottom corner was rounded to finish off the card.
Make sure you check the CAS-ual Fridays Stamp blog to see more samples created with the new set. Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
Hugs and smiles

Hi Beate, it has been a while since I commented, been checking in on you and your wonderful work, but just too tired to type much. That bad hurricane hit our area, and there has not been a great amount of time for me crafting or on the computer, but I hope to get back to my old routine soon. We had no power for 5 days, thank god for generators!!
Love this CAS card of yours, so wonderfully cute and yet so quick and easy. Some times I am my own worstenemyy, get road block I think because I am thinking too hard. All these wonderful dies came into play and I seem to have forgotten all my wonderful stamps, have to learn to combine the two more frequently.
Thanks for all youwonderfulfu inspiration and keep up the great work.
hugs

These are super cute! Are you going CAS on me now, girl? 🙂

So sweet, Beate! I’ve pinned that mistletoe card as a “kiss me note” ~ awe some!!
OHHHH! These are beautiful–LOVE the CAS styled card! FUN little present image:) And that second card is GORGEOUS! LOVE the papers and that border punch! FAB designs for both:)
I just love how you pieced those little presents, and I will definitely be doing that in the future! So cute with the sentiment and trio of gems underneath. The mistletoe card is fantastic, too. The notebook edge and vertical sentiment border are such fun details!
I just love these to pieces! Those little presents are so stinkin’ cute! I want them under my tree for reals! hehehe 🙂
Beate, your cards are adorable! I love the super detaled paper piecing on the gifts, and that notebook edge is such a perfect touch!
