I was making my quota of 4 Christmas cards for April, using a new die. Since it only arrived this week I wasn't going to submit it for the WT challenge (Sprng Means NEW Beginnings), but as I was trying to work out how to make a CAS card to showcase my quilted flake, I remembered a so-far unused Memory Box die that I bought just after Christmas, so it was too late for last year's cards. That's definitely more than a month old!
Stamped the sentiment, embossed the base, and added a gold border with a pen. Added the little holly leaves and berries either side of the sentiment.
For the quilt block I cut it four times - once from matt gold, once from shimmer paper and once from Bazzill. I didn't really like how flat the Bazzill looked beside the shimmer paper, so I misted it with some homemade mister and it looked much better. Bling in the centre, and at each corner of the card. Quilt block popped up on foam.

Beautiful card, Sabrina! That quilted focal image is wonderful.
