I am aiming to try to make more CAS Christmas cards this year as I about died last year with the more intricate ones and about went broke mailing them out. So, I thank you Emily for having a design that will help me achieve this.
I used SU Jolly Holiday DSP paired with very vanilla and cherry cobbler, one of my new fave SU colors. I used the EK embossed curve border punch and SU silk old olive ribbon. I used a Fiskar's corner rounder punch around the top and bottom of the main mat. The greeting was stamped in Old Olive and the greeting I received in a RAK from Peggy-Sue - thanks girl!! I popped up the 1st layer on dimensionals. I just had to add 2 little red rhinestones to the centers of the border punch. It about killed me not to add any more, but I was good. I was even going to emboss the vanilla card stock, but made myself stop.
Again, congrats to you Emily. ENJOY your very special week.
Thanks SO MUCH for taking a look and have a great week.
P.S. I hope Anne Ryan doesn't see I'm on a Christmas Craze again - I tried not to let it happen, but I think it has!!

This is a GORGEOUS CAS card for Christmas!! Doesn't Emily do CAS perfectly? You've captured her style to the tee.
And, oh, Pamzi!! Your poem made me laugh!! And I needed a good chuckle after all the drama of the first day of school. Thanks--I needed that
