The CAS challenge to-day was to honour Harriet (hskelly) and my oh my..what a wonderful gallery she has! I chose this little gem CC449 Happy Holidays by hskelly at Splitcoaststampers to case. The technique challenge was to use a stencil made from a die-cut. I chose flowers and branches from spellbinders. The bird die is from Elizabeth Craft designs sponged with some calypso coral and topped with a black overlay. Both of these dies, I am sad to say, haven't been used in a very long time. sigh*..just had to have them!! LOL Also something that hasn't seen the light of day for quite a while is this embossing folder from Cuttlebug. Had to have that one too!..double sigh** Enjoy basking in the limelight Harriet it is an honour well deserved.

Where do I start with this Sue? I love that bit of color with that cute bird and I love the sponged flowers and branch! Then you topped it off with cool embossed framing! I love the art deco with the Asian feel - very eclectic and will pin for a future case! Thanks so much for taking time to case my card!

I'm glad you did pull these out, this EF is just beautiful and I love this bird die even more, particularly love the calypso coral sponging!!! A beautiful card for both challenges!
