Congratulations Queen Kathy for being chosen our weekly QFTD! You're most deserving of such an honor and your gallery is just full of C&S cards that I wanted to CASE. I chose this Vintage Village card Vintage Village, Snowy Sky by CAKath at Splitcoaststampers
and changed it up a bit so that it no longer looks vintage. I do much better with bold colors, so I used navy and white for my card. I didn't have the bird stamp, so I used ribbon to fill in the top space. I didn't sponge my embossed image either, I used a white-core cardstock and sanded it instead. I also eliminated the corner embellishments and layered this with white cardstock. I hope you like it
Enjoy your reign Kathy!

Carol, thanks for your kind words. I just LOVE your CASE. CAS cards really can rock and you show us that with this beautiful holiday greeting in navy and white. I love that you sanded down the embossed images to show the white, it's so dramatic. The white frame and satin ribbon are perfect. Thank you so much for honoring me with this CASE. Now I will have to try it your way.

Oh carol, this is so stunning in blue w/the embossing! What a work of art this is, my friend. Bold, non-traditional and dramatic. From beginning to end, you didnt miss a beat w/crafting a spectacular card.
