Hi all!
What is your go-to style of crafting? I am all over the place! I love CAS, but it's not my instinctual style. I'm a more is more kinda gal, especially with colors patterns and textures. If you saw my house you would completely understand...my kids refer to it as circus chic.
My holiday favorite embossing folder from Spellbinders...it may change soon as new product is arriving soon at my door step...was the launching point of this card. The pattern is reminiscent of a cable knit sweater, it's cozy and inviting!
The panels of patterns are gold foil using Altenew's Chevron hot foil plate as well as the Greetery's Fair Isle stencil. The sweater pattern was fussy cut and only 1 of the 5 stencils were used to make a super easy addition to the sketch.
Finally, the sentiment die is Fancy Giving Thanks from Simon Says Stamp, cut from metallic gold paper and mounted on white paper. Then red sequins were added to give this card some extra shimmer!
Thank you so much for visiting, I hope you have a holiday colorful day!

I, too, am all over the place when it comes to style but must admit that CAS is perhaps my least loved and used. Yet I love when others do it so successfully. The shine on this one makes everything come together.
