A very CAS card with bells from an older SU set that I don't think I've ever used! An early start on a New Year's resolution to use older stamps (and if I don't want to use them, put them in a donation box).
I stamped the bells on watercolour paper and painted with my Gansai Tambi paints that include metallic gold and copper paints. I used those metallic paints on the bells - in real life, there is more shimmer than in the photo. I fussy cut the bells, popped them up on a cs square with "Jingle" stamped on it, and bordered with gold shimmer cs.

Such a gorgeous CAS Xmas card Susan and I love to hear when someone finally inks up a stamp they’ve had for a while. I know I’ve a few *wink*. Thank you for playing in my challenge. Happy new year. May it be a better one. Hugs

Great bell and fantastic Christmas card! I have already started on this year's Christmas cards as I have a bunch to get made and do a few every week. This is wonderful!

This is a very pretty card with the unused bells! We all probably have more of those stamps than we would like to admit. You might have to keep this one now. You've used it to a lovely effect!
