Merry Christmas-CAS198

Photo Details

Poster: stampingout

This week's CAS198 is to be inspired by the following quote: I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night- Galileo
I made a Christmas themed card using stars for part of my scene. I love the homespun feel of this card! I used stamps from The Stamps of Life set, trees4Christmas.

TFL!

Oh, I LOVE this! There's a bit of an Americana feel to it! :) I love the subtle stars and that little tree is just too cute!

Emily, you do these homey, folk artsy kinds of cards so well. I love what you've done here with the paper piecing, stars, and fibers. Well done.

Oh this is nice. I THINK I FINALLY REALIZED _ I WAS SUPPOSED TO USE THAT QUOTE AND NOT MY OWN!!! I have to go back and re-read the directions!

I like how you have the strips of paper or ribbon to make your garland around the tree. Nice touch
