I decided to participate in this year's Monthly Christmas Card Challenge, and this is my submission for January. Here's the link if you'd like to play along. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Yesterday's CAS Limited Supply Challenge Forums at Splitcoaststampers was perfect for Christmas cards because my goal is to keep them simple for mailing purposes this year.
I started with a Whisper White card base. I cut a piece of scrap paper to 5.5"x4.25" and then cut out a 2.75"x3.75" rectangle in the center. I laid this scrap/template over the front of the card and sponged in the sky with Baja Breeze. Then I just stamped the tree and sentiment with Chocolate Chip ink, the snowflakes with Baja Breeze ink and the bird with Riding Hood Red ink.
I really like the way these turned out and hope you do, too. TFL - Regina

Add me to the growing list of admirers. Particularly like the masked sponge technique and can't wait to try it myself. This would make a perfect sympathy card, too. Thanks for sharing!
